Great idea. Well presented. One thing, it could have been a little longer- ie- a top 20 or so.

I have seen many of these insane laws. Who in their right mind would make these up? but we in todays society also have insane laws that make no sense. Like the most recent one, where sexting of nude photo’s on a cell phone, constitutes a sex predator crime, making the accused face a life of signing up as a sex predator. How rediculous.

Yeah, I learned of a whole bunch of laws like these back in school. I still can’t believe the kinds of laws that are out there. Makes me wonder… is planet earth extremely dumb… as a whole I mean?

For every one example proving Mankind’s advancement in evolution, there seems to be even more examples proving that Mankind has not evolved very far at all! These laws…and others like them…seem to uphold this!
