1.  balasri (6292) | 10 months ago |  Alaska law says that you can't look at a moose from an airplane.
Isn't it too weird?lol
| |
| |
|
|
| ljegbers (5761) | 10 months ago | Can't look at one? I can hear the pilot now "Welcome passengers, we're expecting find flying weather and on time arrival; however, there is a herd of moose on the North side of the runway. Please put on your complimentary blindfolds because the cameras in the plane will catch any violators to our law #1378. We were informed at take off that local law enforcement will be waiting at our arrival terminal for anyone that breaks this law"
Weird law indeed! | |

3.  Rozie37 (6394) | 10 months ago |  Okay, now the first one is just plain gross. The second one, well I am just glad it is not like that in California. The third one would be cool if I knew how to ski. I like the fourth one, the mystery has finally been taken out of that weird name.
I do not know what an MP is, but that is okay, I probably don't need to know. Okay now, the last one is by far the weirdest one. Why would anyone want to shoot a Scotsman with a bow and arrow? And why is it considered legal. Do you get an explanation for any of these?
| |
| |
|
|
| ljegbers (5761) | 10 months ago | No, there wasn't an explanation on these facts. Just did the basic search and found them. I can imagin that these are old laws that were never revised or eliminated. Kind of scary if you think about it. | |
|
|
| Rozie37 (6394) | 10 months ago | Yes, that last one was kind of scary. | |

| 4. raijin (6735) | 10 months ago |  I am familiar with that 'roach thing and Pinocchio, since I've heard or read about it somewhere else(?).=)
The one's that intrigued me were those that came next to it, I never knew that you need a license to catch mice in the US!LoL I've been a former employee of McDonald's, I guess I have to sue my employer for not sharing that fact to me (us)!LoL I'm not sure why armour's where prohibited on entering the House of Commons, but I guess it has something to do with the House's security.
Now for the last one, I think that it is horrid and I am in awe. I guess people need to rest on sundays, lucky those who were not shot down!=)
Anyways, thanks for sharing valid informations and may you have a prosperous New Year..

| ljegbers (5761) | 10 months ago | I find these interesting and comical. I've researched old laws before and it amazes me that they are still in effect, not practiced, but still out there.
It still amazes me that they are still listed, you'd think that they would have been updated (with the turn of the century) or phased out....? | |

| 5. adforme (102) | 10 months ago |  Hello Ljegbers,
Those facts are wierd for sure. I think I could go for the ski-thru McDonalds, just another way to get my Mcdonalds he he. I would hope some of these laws will be updated for the sake of common sense. The fact about the cockroach is extremely scary and; I would say that Pinocchio the character in the story earned his name.
| |
| |
|
|
| ljegbers (5761) | 10 months ago | I agree that you'd THINK these laws would be updated out of common sense, but guess not. I just like to look these up and see how far back these go back and scratch my head why are these still in effect. | |

|
| ljegbers (5761) | 4 months ago | Funny how some laws are never updated, then again, funny how they ever became laws to begin with.?? | |

| 7. kuer86 (645) | 10 months ago |  interesting people and interesting things.
so it is legal to shoot a Scotsman with a bow and arrow.
can't use stone or other tool.
do york people hate Scotsman? hate them so much that they want to shootScotsman?
| |
| |
|
|
| ljegbers (5761) | 4 months ago | I'm sure this is a very old law that was never removed. Sometimes laws are created years and years ago and never updated. No, this isn't leagl to do in today's world. Kind of makes me wonder when this law was made. | |
