In California after your first DUI conviction, you pretty much cant drink anymore. If you get stopped and the driver is drunk you will get your second DUI conviction even if you are a passenger. Also if you are Drunk in public and you get stopped with your car keys you will also get the DUI because the intent was there.

That you can't take a handgun into a playground, park, or any other area run by the State for recreational purposes.

Aside from the obvious stupidity of banning handguns at the explicitly listed areas, the "any other area" is doubly stupid, because it is vague.

In some state in the U.S it is against the law to carry an ice cream in your back pocket,
one of the rules in York ( England ) was there was a street where you could legally beat your wife with a stick if she was being unfaithful however the stick could not be thicker in diameter of your thumb! This was back in the 1600s or so!

I took a law class in high school, and we looked through the our state statutes. In the state of Wisconsin, there was a statute addressing the nomenclature of businesses in which the game of bowling occurs. They may not be called "bowling alleys" because of the negative connotation of the word "alley." Instead, they must be called "bowling centers." I don't know if it's still on the books this way, but I'm amazed it ever got on in the first place... and people complain about the use of tax dollars to fund schools!

erm.....no "jay-walking"

In common use, the term generally refers to someone crossing a major street outside of a designated crosswalk or intersection, in jurisdictions where this is illegal.

it's such an odd law.
but i guess there's a reason for it!

It's illegal to drive a camel on the highway, but it is legal to hang your neighbor if he shoots your dog on your propert.


Hello
The law that requires you to pay sales tax on the California Redemption Value (i.e. recycling fee charged on a soda can or bottle). That's double taxation. I really hate it. Now they even charge redemption value on juice. They want to tax everything from your wallets.

I live in Texas and it's still in our laws that you can hang someone for stealing your horse. Of course it's not practiced much.

In York (England) it is still legal to shoot a scotsman with a bow and arrow except on Sundays..

The state should make drugs legal. It's the person's own damn fault for dying from these things in the first place.

And paying stoooopid unnecessary taxes.
