Stupid Laws
Hi everyone. This blog is going to be about – well – the heading says it all.
Horses are forbidden to eat fire hydrants.
This is from Marshalltown, Iowa, USA
How are horses going to eat fire hydrants??? The only way is if they suddenly become very intelligent and start hitting it with a hammer. Or put it in a shredding machine and then mix it with some hay.
It is illegal to get a fish drunk.
In Ohio, USA
First question – How DO you get a fish drunk?
Second question – How do you KNOW when a fish is drunk?
Third question – Why would you WANT to make a fish drunk?
All men must carry a rifle to church on Sunday. (Repealed)
Massachusetts, USA
This one was repealed, but it actually had good use. Every adult male must have carried a rifle to protect against Indian attacks. Very useful. I wonder if the Reverend had a hand gun?
If a steam locomotive is driven on roads, a man must walk in front of the vehicle with a red flag during the day and a red lantern at night to warn passers-by.
England.
Why would you drive a steam locomotive on roads? What about motor vehicles on railroads?
IT is illegal to die in the Houses of Parliament.
England again
How then are they going to punish the person who died? The death sentence perhaps?
Cats are not allowed to chase dogs up telephone poles.
Minnesota, USA
Sorry, can’t give any comment, laughing too hard!!!
It is forbidden to bring bears to the beach.
Here is one from Israel
Can someone please tell Mr Bean to leave his beloved bear at home when going to Israel?
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.
Canada
If you give someone a handgun and bullets and a horse, they might as well cause havoc in the town and go back to prison again. It doesn’t make sense!!!
Minors are not allowed to purchase cap pistols, however they may buy shotguns freely.
Kansas City, Missouri, USA
Are they out of their frikken minds?!

Funnnnny and weiiiiiird laws. I believe there must have been real reasons behind making the laws? Although, how do a politician keep himself from dying in parliament? Unbelievable. On second thought, they probably bore each other to death with their boring speeches. Maybe the speeches are more upbeat these days…
