10 Dumbest Laws in America

[Becca Bonneville]

Ok I came across this on AOL... Thought it was funny!!


Nevada: It is illegal to drive a camel on the highway.

Colorado: It is illegal to ride a horse while under the influence.

Virginia: Children are not to go trick-or-treating on Halloween.

Florida: A special law prohibits unmarried women from parachuting on Sunday or she shall risk arrest, fine, and/or jailing.

California: Animals are banned from mating publicly within 1,500 feet of a tavern, school, or place of worship.

Wisconsin: Margarine may not be substituted for butter in restaurants unless it is requested by the customer.

Illinois: You may be arrested for vagrancy if you do not have at least one dollar bill on your person.

Nebraska: If a child burps during church, his parent may be arrested.

Georgia: Donkeys may not be kept in bathtubs. (Now Manda I told you to get him out of the tub!!)

Texas: A recently passed anticrime law requires criminals to give their victims 24 hours notice, either orally or in writing, and to explain the nature of the crime to be committed.

[newfiemountiewife]

LOL that is nuts! Yes, what are you doing tomorrow evening? Well, I'll be breaking into your home right about 7 pm, does that time work for you?

ROFL It is also against the law in Nevada to buy sex toys! Can you believe that? A state that allows prostitution and you can't buy sex toys? You can buy it from another person but you can't buy it for yourself! LMAO

Damnit! So much for installing that jacuzzi tub so we could squeeze 4 donkeys in instead of 2!

LOL! You just need to lay off of them donkeys Manda! Biggie might get upset anyway!!

[Nettio]

California: Animals are banned from mating publicly within 1,500 feet of a tavern, school, or place of worship.

I'm really confused by this one because we actually had farm animals being raised on our high school property. The softball fields backed directly up against the sheep barn. I wonder if they somehow had to keep them apart?
