Some of these are American laws!!! Obviously had to have been passed by Dems, take a look at the top 25!
Here is the Times' list of the world's most ridiculous laws:
25. It is illegal for a cab in the City of London to carry rabid dogs or corpses. Who knew???
24. It is illegal to die in the Britain Houses of Parliament. Does Brain dead count?
23. It is an act of treason to place a postage stamp bearing the British monarch upside down.
22. In France, it is forbidden to call a pig Napoleon. Or Zsa Zsa Gabor!
21. Under the U.K.’s Tax Avoidance Schemes Regulations 2006, it is illegal not to tell the taxman anything you don’t want him to know, though you don’t have to tell him anything you don’t mind him knowing. Think this is the democratic oath here in the US!!
20. In Alabama, it is illegal for a driver to be blindfolded while driving a vehicle. Things that make you go .........
19. In Ohio, it is against state law to get a fish drunk. GUILTY! Good thing it's not a NY law!
18. Royal Navy ships that enter the Port of London must provide a barrel of rum to the Constable of the Tower of London. Should apply to all US ports!
17. In the U.K., a pregnant woman can legally relieve herself anywhere she wants — even, if she so requests, in a policeman’s helmet. That explains alot of things we didn't quite comprehend about the Brits!
16. In Lancashire, no person is permitted after being asked to stop by a constable on the seashore to incite a dog to bark. ??????
15. In Miami, Fla., it is illegal to skateboard in a police station. DAMM!
14. In Indonesia, the penalty for masturbation is decapitation. Seems a little stiff
13. In England, all men over the age of 14 must carry out two hours of longbow practice a day. ALL for this one! Not so ludicrus if you can't own a gun!
12. In London, Freemen are allowed to take a flock of sheep across London Bridge without being charged a toll; they are also allowed to drive geese down Cheapside. This law must have came about after a ship entered port and the house of commons confiscated the barrel of rum??? (#18)
11. In San Salvador, drunk drivers can be punished by death before a firing squad. Ouch that would reduce the population here!
10. In the U.K., a man who feels compelled to urinate in public can do so only if he aims for his rear wheel and keeps his right hand on his vehicle. All while staying in his designated lane while doing 50MPH!
9. In Florida, unmarried women who parachute on Sundays can be jailed. Does this reference a sexual manuver?
8. In Kentucky, it is illegal to carry a concealed weapon more than six-feet long. Hahahahahha! And more that a 10 round clip?
7. In Chester, England, Welshmen are banned from entering the city before sunrise and from staying after sunset. ????
6. In the city of York, it is legal to murder a Scotsman within the ancient city walls, but only if he is carrying a bow and arrow. YEESH!
5. In Boulder, Colo., it is illegal to kill a bird within the city limits and also to “own” a pet — the town’s citizens, legally speaking, are merely “pet minders." I agree with the pet part.....
4. In Vermont, women must obtain written permission from their husbands to wear false teeth. Not touching this one.
3. In London, it is illegal to flag down a taxi if you have the plague. But busses are just fine!
2. In Bahrain, a male doctor may legally examine a woman’s genitals but is forbidden from looking directly at them during the examination; he may only see their reflection in a mirror. Or go by feel!~
1. The head of any dead whale found on the British coast is legally the property of the king; the tail, on the other hand, belongs to the queen — in case she needs the bones for her corset.
