In Alaska, its illegal to look at a moose from a plane. In California, its illegal to eat an orange while in a bathtub. In Illinois, you MUST have at least $1 on you to avoid getting arrested for vagrancy. In Iowa, kissing is not allowed to last more than 5 minutes. In North Dakota, its illegal to sleep on the bed or couch with shoes on. In South Dakota, a horse must wear pants if its being rode in a city. In Vermont, its illegal to tickle a woman. In Oklahoma, whaling is a crime. This is a stupid law because there is no ocean anywhere near Oklahoma, its right in the middle of the country.

In Pennsylvania any motorist who sights a team of horses coming toward him must pull well off the road, cover his car with a blanket or canvas that blends with the countryside, and let the horses pass. If the horses appear skittish, the motorist must take his car apart, piece by piece, and hide it under the nearest bushes.

I know this because a cop once pulled me over after I passed an amish family and gave me a fake ticket for violating this law he had just found out about. We both had a good laugh.

You also have to shoot a flare up every mile when driving on a country road at night to scare off any cattle.

Do it, you lawbreaker, you're so cool. I wanna be you.

But seriously, Why do some of these laws even exist? I mean some of them make sense from a long time ago, but some are just stupid. I'm not allowed to eat an Orange while I"m in the bathtub? It's my freakin house, I do what I want. And why can't I sleep with my socks or shoes on. These are so dumb... hahahaa.

Not as stupid as SOPA though.

Whats better than all these weird laws is the idea that they were made to keep people from doing something...

Oh and flying while looking at moose could potentially cause a crash due to lack of attention to flying, hence the law was made.

It is illegal to wear a chicken on your head while traveling from Minnesota to Wisconson.

Can't buy alcohol before noon on sunday in Michigan. The problem with this law is that it actually affects some people. Some people i was with were driving to Mackinaw city and one of the guys stopped to buy some dirt-cheap whiskey and couldn't because of this law.

Here are some crazy Georgia laws:

It is illegal to use profanity in front of a dead body which lies in a funeral home or in a coroners office.

Members of the state assembly cannot be ticketed for speeding while the state assembly is in session.

Donkeys may not be kept in bathtubs.

Signs are required to be written in English.

No one may carry an ice cream cone in their back pocket if it is Sunday.

All sex toys are banned.

You cannot live on a boat for more than 30 days during the calendar year, even if just passing through the state.

The term "sadomasochistic abuse" is defined so broadly, that it could possibly be applied to a person handcuffing another in a clown suit.

In Florida it's illegal to have ice cream in your back pocket. Originally because the horse rustlers would do it to lead the horse away from the gate.
