Re: Funny laws.

I think in the UK it was illegal for a police officer to make an arrest unless they were wearing their hat. When I first heard it I had this loop of a police officer trying to arrest a police officer which broke this law, but he wasn't wearing his hat, and so on.

Re: Funny laws.

Where I live:
It is illegal for a doctor to ask a patient whether they own a gun.

Doors of all public buildings must open outwards.

It is illegal to sell your children.

Women may be fined for falling asleep under a hair dryer, as can the salon owner.

If an elephant is left tied to a parking meter, the parking fee has to be paid just as it would for a vehicle.

It is illegal to sing in a public place while attired in a swimsuit.

It is illegal to skateboard without a license.

Mmm good point. One somewhat makes sense but I don't think that should be illegal.

Spelling fixed.

Also, 5 makes a little sense, they're taking the space up, aren't they? But why would anyone have an elephant in your town?

Um. Who would have an elephant. Tied to a parking meter.

Singing in a bathing suit? What's wrong with that?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aku_Ankka wrote:

There is a popular urban legend that Donald Duck was once banned in Finland for not having any pants. This myth was sparked up by an incident in 1977, when Helsinki councilman Markku Holopainen proposed discontinuing the use of city funds for the purchase of Aku Ankka comics for youth centers, as a reaction to financial difficulties. The following year, as Holopainen was running for a Parliament seat, his opponents then called him "the man who banned Donald Duck from Helsinki".
