Dumb laws

Okay get this... in San Francisco there is a law(still in effect) that states that performing oral is punishable by a fine, and you cannot walk elephants down main street... lol

In New York City...
Citizens may not greet each other by "putting one's thumb to the nose and wiggling the fingers".
It is illegal for a woman to be on the street wearing "body hugging clothing."
You may not smoke within 100 feet of the entrance to a public building.
Women may go topless in public, providing it is not being used as a business.

In Oklahoma...

It is illegal to have the hind legs of farm animals in your boots.
People who make "ugly faces" at dogs may be fined and/or jailed.
Oral sex is a misdemeanor and is punisable by one year in jail and a $2,500 fine.

It's statutory rape for a man over 18 to have sex with a female under the age of 18, provided she's a virgin. If she's not a virgin, it is okay, but the said person must be over 16. If both parties are under 18, then the law does not apply.

You know, some of the dumb laws people are posting here aren't so dumb, or even unusual. It kind of dilutes the entertainment value.
