Just go there, there's a buttload of useless laws there.
Ex: Any person who persuades another to enter a massage therapist business after 11:00 PM is guilty of a misdemeanor.
Goldfish may not be given away to entice someone to enter a game of bingo.
You can't shoot any game other than whales from a moving automobile.

Oops, too late for that one.  Come now, you know how much a good citizen I am.  I had too.

In New York, you can be fined 25 bucks for flirting. Yet, women are allowed to be topless on the streets.

I saw a couple of women making use of that privilege one time during a march. Hehe.

In Lexington (the city I live in) it is illegal to carry an ice cream cone in your pocket.

Children's Online Privacy Protection Act.

The United States Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) (15 U.S.C. § 6501), effective April 21, 2000, applies to the online collection of personal information by persons or entities under U.S. jurisdiction from children under 13. It spells out what a Web site operator must include in a privacy policy, when and how to seek verifiable consent from a parent and what responsibilities an operator has to protect children's privacy and safety online.

Thanks Kevin. I think that the fact that you can't sell peanuts in Lee county after sundown on Wendsday is one of the DUMBEST laws ever.
