Odd US laws
I'm pretty sure most of the items on the list are just bizarre interpretations of various laws that are technically accurate, but never enforced:

Surely they are "dead" but still it's funny to see something like this just because somebody have not bothered to remove it. One of the reasons could be they are not only not enforced but simply ineffective. I.e. even if I have the right size of the stick I would unlikely be allowed to hit my wife with it as she is protected by some different law.
