Guest King Andrei Posted August 4, 2002 Share Posted August 4, 2002 Some American States have really WIERD laws. There was also an article about it in the Newspapers. Alaska: It's illegal to push a moose/whatever-it-was (can't remember exactly) out of a moving plane. These laws I saw on Discovery in that "You can be a criminal and not even know it" commercial: Alaska: It's illegal for a moose to engage in sexual relashionships with another moose on the city sidewalk. Another State:(can't remember which one) It's illegal for a man to wink at a woman whom is not aqquainted to. I wonder if they even have a law about illegal suicide: Yeah, I can imagine that: "Sir, you are under arrest for commiting suicide. You have the right to remain silent......":D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tie Guy Posted August 4, 2002 Share Posted August 4, 2002 Can't remember where, but i heard one law where "It is illegal to carry a concealed weapon over 6' long." If it was that long, how would you conceal it? I used to have a book of these but i lost it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artoo Posted August 4, 2002 Share Posted August 4, 2002 Hehehehehehe, there are only 2 I can remember, but they stick out in my head very clearly. 1 - In Arkansas it is illegal to mispronounce Arkansas. (Guess there was statewide illiteracy on this at one point in time, go figure. ) 2 - In Podunk, Iowa (OK so it's not Podunk but it might as well be called that because not that many people live there) if you are approaching the town in a car, before you enter town you must send someone running ahead warning all the people and horses that an automobile is coming through, and then you must sound a horn or yell as you are going through. (God I wish I could remember the name of that town) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Homer Posted August 4, 2002 Share Posted August 4, 2002 I remember one from Virginia that stated: It is illegal to have a bathtub inside your house. Most of these laws were made a long time ago and no one has had the time or really even cared to repeal them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compa_Mighty Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 I read in some place of the States there was a $500 fine for exploding a Nuclear bomb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kryllith Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 Only a $500 fine? That's pretty good. Do you have to pay for any collaterial damage or is that presumed to be covered in the $500? Anyway, the law that's bugging me the most is the one that prevents people from owning ferrets in California. They need to hurry up and repeal that law so I can move back...

DashRendar Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 Originally posted by Havoc Stryphe Actually, in the state of Pennsylvania (Where I live) It's illegal to not milk your cows. Technically...that's not too wierd or stupid, since Cows die if not milked periodically. I wouldn't be surprised if more than just PA have that law. Dang I've heard a ton of these, but can't remember them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
