How many laws have you broken?

JEDI87 · 10-19-2006, 09:24 AM

Pick your state and see how many laws you have broken and didn't know it.
Here is mine.
In Nevada sex without a condom is considered illegal.
"Spiteful gossip", defined as "talking behind a person's back", "unwarranted" or "without cause, is illegal in Nevada.

I'd like to know where they got those....I've heard of others, but that doesn't look so legit. Also, I don't think i've broken but maybe the last one here in TN....I didn't quite follow it though.

"According to an Illinois state law, women must address bachelors as "master" instead of "mister"."
"In Chicago, it is against the law to eat in an establishment that is on fire."

-There is a law designed to reduce crime that clearly states:"It is mandatory for a motorist with criminal intentions to stop at the city limits and telephone the chief of police as he is entering the town."

-In the state of Washington there is a law against having sex with a virgin under any circumstances, including the night of the wedding.

-In Seattle, goldfish can ride the city buses in bowls only if they keep still.

These are always funny to read.

"In sarasota, FL (my hometown) it is illegal to wear swimwear while singing in a public place."

Yeah that's actually a GOOD law considering the amount of senile old people driving around and doing other very very odd things....lol

An old law in Bellingham made it illegal for a woman to take more than 3 steps backwards while dancing.

Same sex marriage is illegal? Oh snap!

Flying the confederate flag is outlawed on government property, except in South Carolina and Georgia, where it is required to be flown.

Funny a few years ago the NAACP made protests to get the confederate flag down from the State House. Then they made another one to have it removed from the confederate museum. Welcome to SC Ya'll! Have a 6 pack, a shotgun, and some blue grass tunes!

Edit: I almost forgot... There is also some sort of law in SC that it's illegal to wear blue jeans with pockets. ???

-In Baldwin Park, "No female shall appear in a bathing suit on any street within this community unless she is escorted by at least two officers or unless she be armed with a club." Amendment - The provisions of this status shall not apply to females weighing less than 90 pounds or exceeding 200 pounds nor shall it apply to female horses.

-In Ventura County, cats and dogs are not allowed to have sex without a permit. whats wrong w/ a dog want'n a little ???

A parent can be arrested if his child cannot hold back a burp during a church service.

Cuff 'em an' stuff 'em Deputy!...lol

Paul H. · 10-19-2006, 02:24 PM

Many of those laws are true and are still on the books.

In NC, it is illegal to have sex outside of marriage or to live with a member of the opposite sex if you are not related or married.

Tron · 10-19-2006, 02:34 PM

Vermont:

-Lawmakers made it obligatory for everybody to take at least one bath each week -- on Saturday night.
-It is a crime to whistle underwater
-It is illegal to stick lighted sparklers in your ears and nose and run up and down the street.
-It is illegal for women to wear false teeth without the written permission of their husbands

I Break them all!!
