*Some stupid laws I ran across while trying to determine if it is indeed legal for me to openly wear a knife on my belt in public. I thought you guys might get a kick from some of them. I’ll start with a few from Alabama…*
Alabama:
–It is illegal to play dominoes on Sunday *( Uh oh! Sorry, family…)*
–Anyone who wears a false mustache to church and causes “unseemly laughter” will be arrested
–Operating a motor vehicle while wearing a blindfold is illegal *(Some people might drive BETTER if they did!)*
–Breton: It is unlawful to ride down the street in a motorboat
–Mobile: Pigeons may not eat pebbles from composite roofs (Pigeon Police! Pigeon Police! Actually, there may be good reason for this law. Imagine ‘armor-piercing’ pigeon poop… 
)
California: *(You know I can’t resist going after the ‘Granola State’…)*
–It is a misdemeanor to shoot any sort of game from a moving vehicle unless the target is a whale *(I thought this was ‘Save the Whales’ country??)*

–Glendale: Horror Films may only be shown on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday
–Hollywood: It is illegal to drive more than 2000 sheep down Hollywood Boulevard at a time *(The problem is that the police enforcing this law keep falling asleep.)*
–LA: No persons shall hunt moths under street lights *(Darn! Back to using candles.)*
–LA: Two babies may not be washed in the same tub at the same time
–Pacific Grove: One may not threaten or kill a butterfly
–San Fransisco: Every day shall be guarenteed sunshine *(I wonder what Momma Nature has to say about this?)*
–San Fransisco: Only elephants on leashes may stroll down Market Street
–Santa Ana: No two people may congregate on a sidewalk for a conversation
–Santa Clara: It is illegal to dedicate parking spaces to the patron saint of television *(Just who is the ‘Patron Saint of Television’?)*
–Santa Clara: Santa Clara, bicycles may not be ridden without “appropriate fashion accessories” anywhere in the county
And one more for the road…
In Oklahoma whale hunting is strictly prohibited. *(You’ve got to wonder what the Oklahoma state legislature was smoking that day.)*
Omar, out.
