Dumbest Laws

Exactly!

 

here it is, it is a hoax

Wife beating has never been legal in the U.S. The Massachusetts Bay Colony prohibited it in 1655, religious groups campaigned against it, and vigilantes occasionally horsewhipped men accused of it. Most states had explicitly outlawed it by 1870.

'Rule of Thumb'......Roman origin.....a measure of 1" (thereabouts) from the tip to the first joint......used to measure the 'Short Toga' length above the knee....this was brought into law by a Roman Consuls wife named Saxa whose Husband named Cerebos was in charge of the salt mines on the mud-flats just South of were I live and who became alarmed at the sight of some of the men as they bent over to scrape salt into their collecting baskets known as 'Sellars'......therefore if she saw a toga that was too short she would shout "Hello there Sellar" and he would have his Toga duly measured.

Dumber Criminals

Less Than Before


A man walked into a convenience stores and placed a twenty dollar bill on the counter, asking for change. When the clerk opened the cash drawer, the robber pulled out a gun, demanding all the cash in the register. Quickly, the clerk acquiesced and the man fled, leaving the twenty on the counter. The total amount of money he got from the cash register was less than fifteen dollars.
