In texas it is a misdemeanor offense to engage in homosexual activities.
I'm fairly sure that law doesn't get a lot of enforcing.

;802661']Hudson, Wisconsin:
No person shall sit, lie or otherwise recline upon or against any parked motor vehicle without the expressed consent of the owner thereof, whether such vehicle is parked upon a public street, alley, parking lot, driveway or private premises.



Wow, I'd be arrested in 5min. I'm always leaning on cars, even while people are inside them. o.o

It’s illegal to take a lion to the movies. yea i would do that but i would need a lion first

[Antares]

I looked in my state and none of them were really dumb in my opinion.
All laws are created for a reason and all have a point to them.

I guess this one is kinda dumb though.

Citizens may not enter Wisconsin with a chicken on their head.

[2D]

There aren't many stupid ones for New Mexico. There aren't even any for my city.

Here's all they have though.

Carrizozo:It’s forbidden for a female to appear unshaven in public.

Deming:Persons may not spit on the steps of the opera house.

Hunting is prohibited in Mountain View Cemetery.


Las Cruces:You may not carry a lunchbox down Main Street.

Some of these are hilarious for Canada:

1) If you are released from prison, it is required that you are given a handgun with bullets and a horse, so you can ride out of town.
2) The color of house and garage doors is regulated by city bylaws (a purple door get you a fine). ... I've seen houses with purple doors :O
3) The city is classified as a no-pee zone. ... So apparently you can take a dump in the city and it's legal :lol: .

For some others, I just don't get why they're even were made:

1) Any person found breaking a boiled egg at the sharp end will be sentenced to 24 hours in the village stocks (enacted by Edward VI). ... United Kingdom
2) Any boy under the age of 10 may not see a naked manequin. ... United Kingdom
3) A man may not relieve himself while standing up, after 10 P. ... Switzerland
4) If you have been maintaining an illegal radio station for five or more years, the station becomes legal. .. Israel

It can't...in 2003 the supreme court basically overturned all anti-sodomy laws. I also wish that the site cited laws better, some are really out there and others have definitely been repealed (Oral sex can not be given or received anywhere...repealed in 1990 for heterosexual couples and 1998 for everyone else... Others like

"Persons may not swear while on the highway."

and

"It is illegal to remove a public building by writing on it"

are kinda taken out of context. But, my favorite for Maryland:

"It’s illegal to throw bales of hay from a second-story window within the city limits."

*thinks* now if I can only get this bale of hay up to the fifth story...

[Perseus]

All these laws were made because someone did something to get them made. :P

But in Georgia, it is illegal to have a donkey(I think it's Georgia) in a bathtub.

*There is a ban on men becoming aroused in public.
