Another year, another look at wacky laws still on the books:
In West Virginia, it is illegal to taunt someone who decides not to participate in a duel or who declines to accept a challenge.
From California: It is a misdemeanor to shoot at any kind of game from a moving vehicle, unless the target is a whale.
Baldwin Park, California: Nobody is allowed to ride a bicycle in a swimming pool.
Chico, California: Detonating a nuclear device within the city limits results in a $500 fine.
In Hollywood "It is illegal to drive more than two thousand sheep down Hollywood Boulevard at one time."
In Norco "All persons wishing to keep a rhinoceros as a pet must obtain a $100 license first."
San Francisco: Prohibits elephants from strolling down Market Street unless they are on a leash.
In Alabama it is against the law to exploit a bear by promoting, engaging in or being employed at a bear wrestling match...
Small Georgia town that still had a law on the books stating that you had to have your negros off the street by dark.
(even if they wore reflectors)
(at least they took down the sign at town entrance "don't let the sun set on your black ass in Riverdale")
