Dumbest Laws Ever
Did you know that it's illegal to "educate" a dog in Connecticut? There are many more pretty ridiculous hunting and fishing-related laws where that one came from!

Gotta love dumb laws.. our state senates never waste any time though, right?
lol thats all priceless, im from ohio now i know i cant fish for whales on sunday good thing to know haha
Ha Ha, nice there are definitely some weird ones out there.
Hahahahaha....I'm from Jersey and the one about not giving alcohol and cigs to zoo animals is classic Jersey!!! I love these!!!!
One has to wonder about the situation (and people) that prompted some of these laws.
I think I broke some of these laws. Thanks to the 5th Amendment, I don't have to say which ones.
#14 porcupine sex. LOL Only in the modern age would anyone think of that. Where have all the morals gone. ;-)
Hey Charlie,
Besides being immoral, I can think of a whole lot of reasons why porcupine sex might be a bad idea. lol
Okay, some hilarious, but what about noodling??? Oklahoma/Texas is the only place i know it's common place. Not outlawed there to catch a fish with your hands.. i wonder what other states "technically" have that law?
how do you molest a butterfly???
ok. im from nebraska and i want to know where to find whales to fish
The dumbest of all the dumb laws are the ones in the "blue law" states that prohibit Sunday hunting.
@Seth Koertner: Pull the wings off or something. Changing 'molest' to something sexually related is a totally modern (and by that I mean in the last 30 years) phenomenon.
@charlie elk: I know you were just saying that for humor, but that law is from the 1880's. No idea how it came about though-- and I would probably hate to know...
"I'm from Nebraska and I want to know where to find whales"
Weight Watchers convention? ;)
Actually #3 isn't a dumb law.
"There is a possible 25 years in prison for cutting down a cactus"
It's a good law, huge black market on stolen cactus from state & federal lands here in the west.
But
some of the others are just FUNNY! Most are probably left over from the 1800's.
That's a good law...Nothing worse than a Moose that can't hold his booze in an airplane!
# 26 makes sence. Haha dont want to share popcorn with a lion!
Oh come on. Whats more good clean fun than pushing a few moose out of a plane?
That's why my elephant got taken away.....
it's all good because my gorilla rides in the front seat
It is absolutely NOT against the law to fish with a bow and arrow in Kentucky.
A lot of these laws are just plain dumb. It is illegal to push a moose off an airplane? Like any pilot would let a moose on an airplane.
Are you kidding me? This stuff cannot be for real.
The US Camel Corps was an experiment in the Southwest US for mobility in the desert. Jefferson Davis, as Secretary of War, authorized this prior to the Civil War but it was abandoned and the camels let loose. That's probably the reason for the prohibition against camel hunting.
I don't think that Alaska's moose viewing law is dumb. The last thing animals need being harassed by idiots in low flying planes.
And it's probably impractical to train the moose to use shoulder carried anti-aircraft launchers. ;-)
I saw these on http://www.dumblaws.com/ Did you know in Pennsylvania it's illegal to sleep on top of a refrigerator outside and sing in the bathtub! I broke the law when I was six...
You know that the bad thing is that someone did something so that they had to make each of these laws in the first place.
#14 all i can say is OWWWW
