The Times Online showcases the
world's 25 strangest laws. My favourites (apart from the one above):
- "It is an act of treason to place a postage stamp bearing the British monarch upside down".
- "In France, it is forbidden to call a pig Napoleon."
- "In Ohio, it is against state law to get a fish drunk"
- "In Florida, unmarried women who parachute on Sundays can be jailed."
- "In Chester, Welshmen are banned from entering the city before sunrise and from staying after sunset."
- "In the city of York, it is legal to murder a Scotsman within the ancient city walls, but only if he is carrying a bow and arrow."
