    I don't know what to say...
    http://weirdglobenews.com/forbidden_to_die_because_of_lack_of_room.html

    CUGNAUX - FRANCE
    Because of the lack of room in the cemetery, the mayor from the France place Cugnaux has declared it's forbidden to die. Prohibition applies to "All persons who do not have a family grave" according to the regulation of Toulouse. Offences will be "badly punished".

    Construction prohibited
    With this (not to be taking too seriously) action of mayor Philippe Guérin, he's trying to get attention from the government. The only area that is free of charge, which qualifies for a extension of the cemetery, borders to an ammo depot of military barracks. Because of the deflagration danger, every form of construction is prohibited.

    60 deaths a year
    "If no action is taking soon, burials will become a large problem". In Cugnaux approximately 60 people die every year.

    Apparently it is also illegal to die in the House of Commons.

    One weird law in Scotland is that it is illegal to keep more than 2 live chickens in your bath tub on a Sunday! <WTF!>

    ...and if you drag him outside the city walls, does it suddenly become legal? Harsh either way!

    "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"

    I think that is the law, I could only kill you if you had a bow and arrow. Not you Parris literally you know :icon_bigg

    *edit* a Crossbow ah I thought you had mixed up who needed to have a bow and arrow for a sec. hmm i think i`m gonna go down for murder in that instance.

    Here are some Silly laws from my State

    For Little Rock - The capital city

    It is unlawful to walk one's cow down Main Street after 1:00 PM on Sunday.
    Flirtation between men and women on the streets of Little Rock may result in a 30-day jail term.
    Dogs may not bark after 6 PM.
    Honking one’s car horn at a sandwich shop after 9 PM is against the law.

    Fayetteville

    It is illegal to kill "any living creature". (Whats funny about the Fayetteville area, its like 3 or 4 cities combined, over a really wide area)

    The Arkansas River can rise no higher than to the Main Street bridge in Little Rock. (?)
    A law provides that school teachers who bob their hair will not get a raise.
    A man can legally beat his wife, but not more than once a month.
    Oral sex is considered to be sodomy.
    Alligators may not be kept in bathtubs. Swimming Pools are acceptable.

    Ok, how many of those laws are still legit today ? Nevermind, Gaijinpunch told me some of those laws in another thread. So I don´t need to know. Since even around here we have had some funny laws. And still have some strange ones too.

    This makes no sense whatsoever. Oral sex = anal sex? :lol:

    It makes you wonder how some of these laws were passed in the first place.

    Thou shall not kill ? it makes perfect sense to me.

    Damn, it looks like if I was a teacher there, I would shave my head every morning . And well, I believe I can hear the womens right movement marching with a bunch female lawyers in their heels.

    well, that is a law I can hear the women really march on to the supreme court, and to amnesty international.

    LOL WTF ?

    sodomy is also another name for beastiality.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodomy

    If I ever saw a gator in my swimming pool, I would probably shoot it, and get some nice boots from it. If not one of the animal rescue teams were nearby, and it was illegal to shoot the gators.

    Well, its the stupid way it was written. "Any living Creature"

    Cockroaches, Spiders, Rats, etc, are living creatures.
