IS JUSTICE BLIND, OR SILLY?

WEIRD STATE LAWS

The United States is a large, vibrant, and diverse country in which states and even cities have the power to pass their own laws. This makes sense in many cases because life is different from the East Coast to the West Coast and what needs to be regulated in Alaska is different than in Florida.

However, because states and cities are given legal leeway, that’s led to some pretty outrageous laws getting on the books. Sometimes, they are not really enforced, but no one has bothered to repeal or undo them.
