    Also in England a royal mail vehicle can go through a red traffic light legally but police ambulance or fire engine are breaking the law to do this.
    Right as it's Sunday I'm off to buy me a new bible and a bag of oranges as I like to live dangerously.....

      As long as you don't post a letter with the stamp upside down. They'd have you in the Tower of London for that terrible crime!

    I think the fact that drugs are illegal is ridiculous, you can't criminalise people for what is essentially a consumer preference.

      i think some drugs should be illegal, such as tobacco, as its bad for people around you, but anything other then those type should be a bit controlled but not extermly so, and taxed based on how addictive it is

    Ok first off to all of u people saying pot should be legal u guys are dumb*****. The drugs are illegal for a reason. People would use them wisely and abuse them and if the pot can ruin someones life if u hate that it's illegal so much go somewhere else where all the potheads go and enjoy your pathetic life lol

    In England, if you place a postage stamp upside down, it's an act of treason if it has the Queen's image on the stamp (most of them do).

    In the houses of parliament, it is perfectly legal to commit murder but it is illegal to die. If someone kills you in the houses of parliament, you're the one who has committed the crime.

        Oh, there are shedloads of them. It's illegal to eat mince pies on Christmas Day. You can buy lemons on a Sunday but not oranges. One of best ones is about lying to the Inland Revenue. If they ask you something you don't want them to know, you've got to tell the truth. But if it's something you're happy for them to know, you're allowed to lie about it. All the swans in Britain are the property of the Queen. And if a whale or shark is beached on the British shore the body belongs to the King and the tail belongs to the Queen.

        None of this stuff ever gets enforced, by the way. It's just legally still on the statue books because no-one has repealed it or come up with a law which trumps it.

          Also it's illegal to eat any poultry other than goose on christmas day. Just about everyone in the country is a criminal because of that one (except me, i don't like turkey).

    I think it was Florida where there's a law that forbids oral sex. And in New Zealand golden showers can get you ten years of jail. Must be some christaleban bs.

    Lol!!! My 2 stupidest laws that drive me crazy are:

    Dont wash your hair too often, it will strip the 'natural oils' off your hair

    and

    You must wait 1 hour after eating before you go swimming.

    These 2 piss me off so fucking much.

    Here are some I found on dumblaws.com:

    Picking up abandoned baggage is an act of terrorism.(UK)

    It is illegal to be drunk on Licensed Premises (in a pub or bar).(UK)

    Putting salt on a railroad track may be punishable by death. (US, Alabama)

    No pig may be addressed as Napoleon by its owner.(France)

    It is illegal to take photos of police officers or police vehicles, even if they are just in the background. (France)

    Only licensed electricians may change a light bulb.(Australia)

    Children may not purchase cigarettes, but they may smoke them.(Australia)

    A life sentence is 25 years.(Australia)

    Some of them are so weird it's like they were made on purpose...

    In charleston, sc it is illegal to drive a motor vehicle down King Street (a street that is perpetually packed with cars - both moving and parked)

    Also, if one of us ladies is driving we are required to have a responsible male walk ahead of the car waving a flag to warn others.

    O! I almost forgot! If we are driving a motorized vehicle, we should fire a shot into the air 100 yds before any intersection to warn approaching horses.

    But keeping w/ what I think the posters original ? Was...I hate that I can now get pulled over do not wearing myseatbelt when I am alone in the car. Kids, sure. And anytime more than one person is in the car, yea- u can become a projectile in an accident and hurt passengers, but alone?! My risk alone...

      I think the seatbelt law is more for insurance reasons. You have to realize that someone has to pay when you get mangled in a wreck, you have the responsibility to keep your risk minimal. An insurance company (or the state) will be paying for your medical care, car insurnce companies might have to pay out based on your injuries, you might become disabled and unable to work which would mean the state and federal gov't might end up paying for you to live for the rest of your life....and so on.

  • I totally agree with making drugs legal, I'd love to see all the dealers, traffickers and cartel owners go out of business practically overnight.
