Strange Laws Monday
It’s Monday, which means that it’s time for some weird and wacky laws from around the country. Let’s start in Louisiana today:
- They take their crawfish seriously in the Bayou. There is a law with the specific intent of stating the punishment for stealing crawfish.
- Pumping your own gas is not allowed in the state of New Jersey.
- If you teach people about polygamy in Mississippi, you’re breaking the law.
- Interracial marriages are illegal in Tennessee.
- If you claim that your parents are rich while in Washington, it had better be true—it’s illegal to pretend that your parents are rich in that state.
- In Virginia, tickling women is illegal.
- Finally, it seems that every state has at least one strange law regarding what you may or may not do on a Sunday. In Ohio, whaling on Sundays is prohibited.
