Stupid laws.

Alright I am bored and stupid laws are well.....stupid..and interesting at the same time. So google around and find stupid laws worthy of posting. I'll start off with a few. :) God they'll just pass anything as a law won't they? Some of these may have been laws at one time but now they're just forgotten things that people look back on and say "Why the heck did we pass that again?" By the way some of these laws are not for the whole state just for certain areas.

Lol. ^_^ Yeah pretty interesting stuff. We should make up our own stupid laws. Like in ohio you can not chew blue gum on a sunday in rainy wheather. The penalty is a fine of 5 dollars but you may keep the gum in your mouth after it is paid and if you choose to keep it and another authority figure attempts to fine you, you must do the chicken dance as a secret hand shake to show him that you've already been fined. Yes yes that would work. ^_^
