25 of the Craziest Laws


 
Law

Laws are put into place to keep the citizens of the United States safe and happy. If you have had a run-in with the law, however, you might be facing an unknown future. This is when it’s time to call one of the many Baytown lawyers. These legal professionals are well-versed in the law and know exactly how to help you. While laws have been around for centuries, oftentimes they are created for a specific problem that an area is facing. Over time, these laws can become obsolete. Here are just a few of the craziest laws that are still in the books, but may not be currently enforced.

  1. In the town of Wilbur, Washington, it’s illegal to ride an ugly horse.
  2. Chickens may not cross the roads in Quitman, Georgia.
  3. In Utah, it’s legal for first cousins to marry if they are older than 65 years old.
  4. If anyone is caught stealing soap in Mohave County, Arizona, they must then wash themselves with the soap until it is completely gone.
  5. In Tennessee, children must have a license in order to play games on Sundays.
  6. In California, it is illegal to lick toads.
  7. Michigan law states that a man owns his wife’s hair.
  8. It is illegal for a woman in Morrisville, Pennsylvania, to wear makeup without a permit.
  9. If you flirt in Little Rock, Arkansas, it is punishable by 30 days in jail.
  10. Walking down the street with another man’s wife in Challis, Idaho, is illegal.
  11. Before getting married in Truro, Mississippi, a man must prove that he is worthy of his bride by killing either 6 blackbirds or 3 crows.
  12. In Pueblo, Colorado, it is illegal to grow dandelions.
  13. Tennessee laws state that a woman can’t drive a car in Memphis unless there is a man in front of her car waving a flag to warn others that she is coming.
  14. Children under the age of 12 can’t talk on the phone unless a parent is present in Blue Earth, Minnesota.
  15. It is illegal for a woman in a housecoat to drive a car in the state of California.
  16. In Waco, Texas, throwing a banana peel onto the street is considered illegal.
  17. Because of its offensive smell, pickles are outlawed in Los Angeles.
  18. In the city of Hartford, Connecticut, men kissing their wives on Sundays was outlawed.
  19. Want to remarry the same man 4 times? Don’t do it in Kentucky! It’s illegal.
  20. Arizona law states that a man may legally beat his wife once a month, but never more than that.
  21. Lander, Wyoming, prohibits adults from taking more than one bath a month during the wintertime. Children aren’t legally allowed to bathe at all during the cold winter months.
  22. In the city of Dyersberg, Tennessee, girls may not call boys to ask them out on dates.
  23. The state of Ohio banned the purchase of ice cream on Sundays because it was frivolous and unnecessary. To get around this law, many ice cream parlors began putting fruit or cherries on top of the ice cream to make it more nutritious.
  24. In Georgia, people who emit foul odors may not ride the streetcars in Atlanta.
  25. Kentucky law says that you can't carry an ice cream cone in your pocket.

While most of these laws have either been repealed or are not enforced, it’s still fun to look back on how silly they seem now. However, if you are facing legal issues now, it’s time to get serious. Don’t try to handle your problems on your own. No matter how crazy or out there you might think your charges are, Baytown lawyers are standing by to help you win your case.
