There are a lot of outdated laws out there that I’ve been noticing lately. For example did you know that if you walk into City Hall in New York City with a bag full of rat heads, then they are legally obligated to give you ten cents for each rat head in the bag, seriously? I figure it was due to the old, old days in New York City when the whole place was chock full of rats. I mean hell one trip to the sewer would bring in a pretty decent pay. Beats flipping burgers at McDonalds, hell you’re probably dealing with rat meat one way or the other anyways, soy my butt.
Another one of my favorite laws is in Alaska. Did you know that in Alaska it is illegal to take a picture of a moose while flying in a plane? Again I can’t make this stuff up. Odd enough though it’s totally fine to take a picture from a moving car or truck, even if that car or truck should be chasing the thing through the snow. Odd..very odd laws, but when dealing with Alaska what do you expect. Thinking you’ll find sanity there is like trying to get Alabama to celebrate Martin Luther King’s birthday. It won’t happen, I do however notice quite a few cakes being bought there around the anniversary of his death. What do you expect from the place where the confederate flag still hangs from the state capitol building?
In Massachusetts there are almost no gambling or anti online poker laws. The ones that do exist were written somewhere around 1900. You know when there weren’t any cars yet, and flying was still a pretty sketchy thing. But according to the laws you can do pretty much anything you want. If you’ve ever been to Massachusetts you’ll know that’s just kind of the feeling anyways. My point is it mustn’t have ever been a real problem since the early 1900’s, otherwise they would have been changing the laws. In fact the only people that seems to have a problem with it don’t even live in Massachusetts!
