I learned about that one in grade school. It's because horse thieves used ice cream to lure the horses out of town in order to steal them. Can't believe I still remember that one.It is illegal to transport an ice cream cone in your pocket.

In Michigan it is a FELONY to cheat on your spouse. Rarely prosecuted as such anymore, but it can be. Warning warning...

Some nice ones for California.
•Molesting butterflies can result in a $500 fine.
•It is illegal to pile horse manure more than six feet high on a street corner.
•In Ventura County, California, cats and dogs are not allowed to have sex without a permit.
•In Los Angeles a man is legally entitled to beat his wife with a leather belt or strap, but the belt can’t be wider than 2 inches, unless he has his wife’s consent to beat her with a wider strap. Consent should be given prior to the event, as is carefully stipulated.
Hmmm, haha.
I want to go to Claifornia and pile up 5 1/2 ft. of horse manure of a street corner, and when the cops come to stop me, pull out a tape measure and be like "Nope, I'm good. Only 5 1/2 feet."
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.

Ahh...good ole' dub-vee.West Virginia:
If you make fun of someone who does not accept a challenge, you risk a six-month prison sentence.
Ah, also found these gems on dumblaws.com
West Virginia:

It is legal to beat your wife so long as it is done in public on Sunday, on the courthouse steps.

In Hilton Head, South Carolina, it is illegal to store trash in your car.
Specifically, that section of the code states that it it’s unlawful “to place, leave, dump or permit to accumulate any garbage, rubbish or trash in any building, vehicle and their surrounding areas in the town so that the same shall or may afford food or homage for rats.”
A violation is consider a public nuisance and is subject to a fine of up to $500 and/or jail time of up to 30 days.
In Kansas, it is illegal to screech your tires. That's a state law, but there are also local ordinances to back it up.
In Derby, Kansas, for example, it's part of a standard traffic ordinance that any act which causes or creates "unnecessary rapid acceleration, unnecessary tire squeal, skid, smoke or slide upon acceleration or stopping including the casting of tread, gravel, dirt or other road surface materials from the tires" is illegal. Also any acts that "simulate a temporary race."
The penalty is a fine up to $500 and/or imprisonment up to 30 days.
If you’re not going to listen to your mother and keep your language clean, you’re going to have to answer to the law in Rockville, Maryland. Here, it’s illegal to swear within earshot of other people, whether you’re on a street, sidewalk or highway. That means even if you’re in your car, you’re going to have to use your talking-in-front-of-the-kids voice.
The penalty is a fine up to $100 and/or jail time up to 90 days.
Does whatever a spiderman does.

From Indiana (and on a personal note: an officer of the Yorktown, In. Police Department informed me of this law when I was 19 with my 17 year old gal)
A man over the age of 18 may be arrested for statutory rape if the passenger in his car is not wearing her socks and shoes, and is under the age of 17.
All that's left of what we were is what we have become.
Priceless!!!!!

My father and other people always told me that it is illegal to drive with flip-flops on in my state (PA) I always thought it was myth, but apparently it is true. I found out two years ago when I was waiting in line at a convenience store. Two state troopers came up to me and asked me if I was driving a car. I said yes.
They both got very angry at me a started yelling at me to take my flip-flops off and to put shoes on or drive barefoot! I just rolled my eyes at them. The state troopers started to tell me that it is very dangerous to wear flip-flops while driving a car.
The state troopers told me that the flip-flops could get stuck on the accelerator and people could get killed by an out of control car. Then they told me a story about how 5 people were killed in a parking lot in Florida because somebody was wearing flip-flops and lost control of their car. (They claimed the person was charged with vehicular homicide!) Well I don't want to kill anybody or break the law so I don't wear flip-flops while driving any more!

This actually sounds like a pretty wise law. Looking at how some people I know have what seems to be not just two left feet, but two left feet stuck sideways, I would not want them driving any sort of vehicle in flip-flops
If you are going through hell - keep going
I actually agree with the no swearing within earshot of another person. I hate it when I am out in public (especially with my kids) and I hear people swearing. All I hear is fuck this and fuck that! Don't people care that little kids are around! When I see little kids or even elderly people I watch my mouth. I realize that it is inappropriate and rude to swear in public. I respect other people and realize that most people don't like to hear swearing.
What I hate the most is when my kids hear swearing and they ask "What are they saying, what does
that mean?' Or worse, when my kids repeat those bad words.

yes
it's a matter of people's responsibility and decency. Law has nothing to do with this.

So, how do we teach responsibility and decency to those who have not been taught it by the parents/family/etc.? Do we just tsk-tsk and shake our heads at how indecent someone is (as if they care - if they did, they would not have said those words when others were present, in the first place)? Why does children's freedom (not to hear outright swearing) have to be infringed on - it will no longer be a matter of removing yourself or a kid from the situation, because swearing will be everywhere if it's tolerated.
