DID YOU KNOW?

In Ventura County, California, cats and dogs are not allowed
to have sex without a permit.

 
 

So who goes around explaining it to them?  And where do they register for a licence?    
Thousands of years ago cats were worshipped.  They have not forgotten.

Did you know in Illinois that you have to have atleast one dollar in your pocket or you could be arrested?

  Here is some crazy Canadian laws with my comments in ( ).

   [DIV class=lawentry]Comic books which depict any illegal acts are banned. (so no baddies can't rob banks?)

[DIV class=lawentry]You may not pay for a fifty-cent item with only pennies. (If you 50 pennies on hand you need your brain checked)

[DIV class=lawentry]Citizens may not publicly remove bandages. (ouch!)

[DIV class=lawentry]It is illegal for clear or non-dark sodas to contain caffeine. (is that true?) (odd)

[DIV class=lawentry]Businesses must provide rails for tying up horses.

[DIV class=lawentry]Wooden logs may not be painted. (So if I have a log house I can't paint it red?)

[DIV class=lawentry]You may never use dice to play craps.

[DIV class=lawentry]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. (That's got to be bullshit)

[DIV class=lawentry]When raining, a person may not water his/her lawn. (Now that makes sense, really, stop wasting water)

[DIV class=lawentry]It is illegal to turn right on a red light at any time. (That only applies in Quebec, I know that one)

[DIV class=lawentry]Margarine producers can't make their margarine yellow. (huh?)

[DIV class=lawentry]All business signs in the province of Quebec must be in French. (Dumb law, seriously dumb, Quebecers are going to speak french now matter what, so it shouldn't matter if a sign is in english.)

[DIV class=lawentry]If you have a water trough in your front yard it must be filled by 5:00 a. (okay)

[DIV class=lawentry]Homeowners are responsible for clearing snow off of municipal sidewalks.  (isn't everybody?)

[DIV class=lawentry]The city is classified as a no-pee zone. (apparently pooping is okay in downtown east side)

[DIV class=lawentry]The color of house and garage doors is regulated by city bylaws (a purple door get you a fine). (Hah, thats a funny one)

[DIV class=lawentry]You can't work on your car in the street. (Who does, thats what a drive way is for)

[DIV class=lawentry]It's illegal to climb trees. (No fun law, no wonder kids are on the computer constantly.)

In the city of Chester (England) it is still perfectly legal to slay a Welshman found within the city limits without good reason. (This dates from the times when the Welsh were thought of much in the same way that New Mexico must have thought of Apache Indians, and for the same reasons).

The only exception: it's illegal to  kill a Welshman in the city in a church ground on a Sunday.

I guess they don't get many tourists from Wales!

I believe they get hundreds, if not thousands every day. Chester is right on the border and the Welsh go there en masse on Saturday evenings for the night life.
A fool's paradise is better than none.

With that law, if it were to be enforced, the Welsh would BE the Saturday night entertainment.

Wait till you get to Alabama where: 1) It is illegal for a driver to be blindfolded while operating a vehicle, and 2) it is illegal to wear a false moustache that causes laughter in church.  
A fool's paradise is better than none.

kitten

Also in Alabama - You may not have an ice cream cone in your back pocket at any time.

And in Ohio it is illegal to get a fish drunk, and in Texas it is illegal to milk another person's cow.

In Connecticut - You may not educate dogs.   A high proportion of stupid dogs there.

In North Dakota it is illegal to lie down and fall asleep without your shoes on.

A couple of laws from Liverpool.

  - It is illegal for a woman to be topless in public except as a clerk in a tropical fish store.

- Any boy under the age of 10 may not see a naked mannequin.

Tropical fish must be very popular there.

Does this mean that boys under 10 are not allowed in tropical fish stores?
