Alabama Laws

Killing a little time online earlier this afternoon and ran across a site that had listed some CRAZY laws in the state of Alabama. Figured I'd copy and paste them here to share. They are so stupid that I couldn't resist a little commentary to go with them. These are ridiculous! But I'm sure, at the time, there was a valid reason for them.


1. Boogers may not be flicked into the wind.

Since it's illegal to flick them INTO the wind, I'm wondering if it's okay to flick them DOWN wind??? Believe I would rather have seen some kind of law about WIPING them on things!



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

And that's where I ALWAYS keep mine!!!! Dang it!!!! I'm sure it's for our own good though.



3. It is illegal for a driver to be blindfolded while operating a vehicle.


Sure would to see the Troopers enforce this one! If they would worry about serious offenders; such as those driving blindfolded, then maybe they wouldn't be so preoccupied with MY speeding.



4. In Auburn, Alabama no person may spit on the floor of a church.


Man!!! And I was planning to run on down to the First Church of the Sacred Tiger and really hock one up Sunday.



5. It is illegal for a man to spit in the presence of a woman.

Awwww... And I always thought that was such a sexy thing to do.



6. It is illegal to howl at ladies within city limits.

I figure it'd be okay to go set just outside the city limits... probably at the beer store... and howl at them there.



7. It is illegal to sell peanuts in Lee County after sundown on Wednesday.


Ah, not to worry. I happen to know a little holler, just over the mountain, where you can buy some bootleg peanuts.



8. Dominoes may not be played on Sunday.

Wow! Who knew that playing dominoes was "of the devil" and mustn't be played on Sunday???



9. It is illegal to wear a fake moustache that causes laughter in church.

Guess you need to check all fake moustaches at the door! Might be rather embarrassing to have the SWAT Team haul your rear end outta the church! And, God forbid! That anyone could smile or laugh inside the church! Might rile up the 'religious' folk!!!!



10. It is illegal to drive the wrong way down a one-way street if you have a lantern attached to the front of your automobile.

Just take the lantern off and you oughta be alright to carry on.



11. Bathing in city fountains is prohibited.

Hmmmm... so much for the Saturday night bathes I've been taking.



12. It
 
:heh: But them there are pretty silly!
 
Thanks, Lisa, I've had a good laugh tonight reading your post and I believe there has been stupid laws in MO written in the newspapers! Remember, the olden days were different in shopping, transportation and such! They used to chew tobacco and spit, and you sure wouldn't want to be near them or have the wind blowing it on you! YUCK! I guess many of them missed the Spittoons and the church wasn't the place to miss hitting it! :clsoedeyes: Anyway, those are good ones! Don't understand #10 though, as it doesn't make any sense! I guess the lattern could be attached to the back and still go the wrong way and then people won't run into you! :lol: There are still some crazy laws still being made just because something happens and someone wants it put on the books as a law! May God Bless! Amen! :angel: Ma Betty
 
Hey Lisa, Here's some 'Old Michigan Laws' you may find interesting:

1. Adultery is illegal, but can only be punished upon a complaint by the affected husband or wife.
2. No man may seduce and corrupt an unmarried girl, or else he risks five years in prison.
3. Cars may not be sold on Sunday.
4. A woman isn
 
Those are bout as crazy as the Alabama ones, Marty!
