I found this very interesting..
For years there have been stupid laws around which have never been over ruled, therefore they are still classed as laws although the chances of being prosecuted for them are very low. Here I have some laws from the UK, Scotland and the US which are very rather amusing…
USA Laws
In Ohio it is against state law to get a fish drunk
In Alaska you can't look at a moose from an aeroplane
In California it is illegal to eat an orange in your bath tub
In Florida women may be fined for falling asleep under a hair dryer, as can the salon owner
In Florida if an elephant is left tied to a parking meter, the parking fee has to be paid just as a vehicle would
UK and Scottish Laws
It is illegal to die in the Houses of Parliament
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.
It is illegal in the uk to beat your door mat (whack it off the floor to get dust off) after 8:00 am
In Scotland it is illegal for a woman to chew chewing gum on a farm
A pregnant woman can legally relieve (pee) anywhere she wants, including in a policeman's helmet
In Liverpool, it is illegal for a woman to be topless except as a clerk in a tropical fish store
Although the next law is considered a ‘stupid law’ it is actually still in force and can result with an arrest, fine or even jailing.
