My friend from Massachusetts (the state with some of the strictest gun control laws in America) told me this one:
In Massachusetts, it's illegal to walk to church on a Sunday without a shotgun.

In Kentucky, it's the law that a person must take a bath once a year.
For many years, there was a Kentucky law (Kentucky Revised Statute 436.140) that stated:
"No female shall appear in a bathing suit on any highway within this state unless she be escorted by at least two officers or unless she be armed with a club.
Later on, however, this absurd law was amended thusly:
"The provisions of this statute shall not apply to females weighing less than 90 pounds nor exceeding 200 pounds, nor shall it apply to female horses."
There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.
You'll have to have have him sign a waiver I guess...or maybe there's an online "husband verification" process you can use...

Eeek!
If you are going through hell - keep going

I don't even try to rationalize old Kentucky laws. I just shake my head and think "Oh, Kentucky, how I love thee."

oh good Lord I am reading this and the television is on, with a Geopardy-like kind of game... and as I am reading, the host asks a contender, "which animal according to Texan laws can't be shoot from the second story of a hotel"

Oh, oral and anal are both (all?) against the law here. So is the sale of sex toys. So when you go and buy one, you have to sign a statement that the intended use is for educational purposes.
Ummm. Not that I personally know that.
