#6 cracked me up. I’ve heard a few of the others, but #10 threw me for a loop, ’cause I figured beastiality was illegal everywhere, irregardless of the weight. My question on the first five is “how are the police going to know?” Are they going to stand outside your bedroom window every time you have sex?
All thous laws are absolutely stupid, why on earth would you wanna have sexual relations with a porcupine? ….WTF!
Wow, I could of never imagined that these would be laws, this is ridiculous!
Erik´s last blog ..Bodybuilder Sergio Oliva “The Myth”
i should be in jail for #9
Too funny. What ever possessed the government to pass such laws? I want to talk to the woman that suffered when her partner shot off a gun during her orgasm!
Ewen´s last blog ..Chapter One
i should be in jail for all pf those laws!!!
except sex w/ porcupines
@Ewen: There are some seriously retarded and irrelevant laws in the US. For instance, in one Michigan city, did you know it’s specifically written down that it is illegal to detonate a nuclear device over the city? Or how about in Alabama where it’s illegal to wear a fake mustache that causes laughter in church, yet incestuous marriages are legal?
LOL @ #6
And here I was planning my vacation to Connorsville, Wisconsin for the sole purpose of inducing a woman into having an organism while firing off my SW 50cal handgun
is it still illegal if i hell yeehaa!?
@Jim: I believe so, but it might mitigate the charges. Though that raises an interesting question in my mind; what if a woman shoots off HER gun while her male partner is having an orgasm? For that matter, what about a guy shooting off his gun while his MALE partner is having one?
So, i’m not sure about all of them, but some of them are bull shit. Beastality is illegal in all states, and it doesn’t matter how much they way. And oral sex is not illegal as long as it’s in your own private home. I guess it’s funny, but it’s not at all true. Don’t by into this, half the everything on the internet isn’t true.
@DJ: It’s all true, actually. Each of these stupid laws is on state’s law books and has been since they were written, generally about 80+ years ago (with the exception of things like ones regarding nuclear devices, which only came into existence about 60 years ago) where religion still ruled much of the government, despite the clear separation of church and state. Go to Dumblaws.com and you can find a rather definitive list of all the various stupid laws in the United States, as well as in other countries. If you can’t believe even THAT, then ask a lawyer.
On a side not, DJ, I don’t mean to sound insulting, but an argument like that would probably carry more weight if you spelled properly with proper grammar.
so let me see if i can get this. the government makes all these laws in the best interest of the people and we all think its bullshit, but when they start with all this global warming crap, its suddenly serious?
i personally couldn’t take an authoritative body seriously in any respect with laws like this destroying their credibility
age of consent should also be reduced to 15.
If a male partner shot off his gun while the female was having an orgasm and killed her, do you think they would find that out in an autopsy? Just wondering…
WOW! “Sex with animals is perfectly legal for men in Washington state” Come here kitty kitty!
seems a pretty girl willing
)
LOL To the porcupine issue… If some dumb-ass wants to try doing a porcupine thats his problem. Hope he finds a steel belted rubber.
Also 5. Engaging in any sexual position other than missionary is illegal in Washington, DC And so is oral sex. Why didn’t these get utilized with president Clinton..lol
Yep we have some weird sex laws here in Utah. I was unaware of the cousin one though. I thought there was some law making oral sex illegal in Utah also, guess I was mistaken?
#6 – “In Connorsville, Wisconsin, it is illegal for a man to shoot off a gun when his female partner is having an orgasm.”
Does that mean it’s legal for a man to shoot off a gun when his male partner is having an orgasm? O.o
#10… WTF?!
this is the craziest shit ive ever read
these americans have some very fucked up laws i mean sex with amimals is legal in washington??????? wtf are these crazy bastards all about, are the politics there high on crack of something???? their laws are so stupid it makes me want to puke, barack obama get a grip on these places PLEASE, sex with animals is abuse and wrong on so many levels
Some are believable but some sound like urban legends. I wish they would put the appropriate law/code reference by each entry to prove they were researched and not just what “some guy” said.
@Trevor: As I made note of a few times in the comments here, these laws are generally 80+ years old and not taken seriously by any current lawyer, police officer, or judge. Basically, they’re only still on the books because nobody thought to repeal them or they were forgotten about. If you go to DumbLaws.com, you can find many similar laws, many of which have either the full text of that law or a “why it exists” (such as for in Georgia, where it’s illegal to say “Hey, boy.” because it hearkens back to when old racists called black men by saying “Hey, boy.”).
Would someone please post a list of animals that weigh less than 40 pounds. (Jack from Washington State wants to play!)
Is anyone else confused about #10? If you can’t have sex with a virgin, how is anyone supposed to become a non-virgin?
I agree that most of these are probably BS though, lol.
Alot of folks in Georgia need to be arrested!!!!
LOL
# 10 would leave a virgin, a virgin for ever ….. WTF
