My favourite one is an American law: It is illegal to tie an alligator to a flagpole in Texas. That means someone in history wrestled an alligator, dragged it to a flagpole and then tied it on the flagpole, before they made it illegal to do so.
Apparently there are some more involving alligators; It is illegal to tie an alligator to a fire hydrant in Louisiana and Florida. In Florida it is also illegal to tie your pet elephant, goat or alligator to a parking meter.
@@euhm That would suggest that it is perfectly legal to tie an elephant to a fire hydrant, when you put them side by side. I can kinda understand the fire hydrant thing, though. I've seen photos where firefighters broke windows in a car parking directly in front of a fire hydrant, to pull the hose(?) through it. The car owner was also fined for blocking the way. In a video, a firefighter explained/showed that had they ran it over, under or around the car, there is a risk of it bending in a way that would block/slow down the water flaw and that is crucial to putting out fire. What I don't understand is why they didn't just use "(dangerous) animals" in those lawmakings. I mean you could technically tie a crocodile to a flagpole, no?
It's actually "in a public place whether in a building or not, or any licensed premises". It's probably a law to help the police help bar/store owners get rid of annoying drunk customers.
The salmon act is about salmon poaching. The handling under suspicious circumstances part of it penalised doing anything salmon you have reason to believe has been poached

@@FakeSchrodingersCat Honestly fuvk of I know why it was made. Just spit balled an idea. Although I feels it's unlikely that its purpose was so poor people couldn't drink. Subjugation of poor was rarely as bad as we think. Wars aren't cheap especially civil wars and uprising.
Yep. "Knock, knock, ginger (also known as knock-down-ginger, ding-dong-ditch, chap-door-run, and numerous variants) is a prank or game dating back to 19th-century England, or possibly the earlier Cornish traditional holiday of Nickanan Night." - Wikipedia
I'm guessing the cannon law was written before the ding-dong ditch law when money was worth more and nobody bothered to re-write it because it's not as if many people are likely to have cannons now, and there are probably other laws you're violating if you use dangerous objects near people.
I know this is an old comment, but in Chicago, graffiti has a larger penalty than speeding in an active schoolzone. discovered this enraging piece of trivia through a college project.
"Being drunk in a pub" That's the most ridiculous law I've ever heard. Edit: I had finally understood why this law has been implemented. BTW guys, drink responsibly. :)
Might sound like so, but the UK has a very specific definition of “being drunk”. It’s based on the ability of the human body to process alcohol. Having some light headed fun is perfectly fine. It’s when you go over the limit of your body’s ability to process alcohol where problems start. And that’s a no-no. To be fair, as long you don’t do something stupid, nobody will charge you for being drunk in a pub. However, if, at that point, you attempt to buy alcohol, or you buy alcohol for someone who is already drunk, and you make a scene when the bartender or cashier refuses the sale, you could be in some serious trouble. Then the “being drunk” will be added to the charges on top of whatever else you did.
We have something similar in Sweden. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it's illegal to serve alcohol in a bar, to an intoxicated person. Of course, I have never seen any bartender refuse anybody alcohol. Unless you're being a moron and makes a scene, then you're thrown out on the street. On to the next bar 🍻
Fun fact: The last law (Handling salmon in suspicious circumstances) is actually supposed to refer to illegal fishing, for example, if a Scottish fisherman goes fishing in Norwegian waters (which is actually surprisingly common, because Norwegian salmon is apparently really popular in Britain for some reason). However, while the law does specifically state that, it doesn't exclude other crimes. Thanks to another law, what Matt did was illegal (since he was the aggressor), but Tom's counterattack was perfectly legal, since it can be considered "self defence."
Let's not forget the cannon firing, and while we didn't see it on screen, something about her just screams "I'll shake a doormat anytime I damn well please" chaotic energy
Actually, the fine was just for firing the cannon. There would be another charge for hitting a house. I think the law was more for the sound of the cannon disturbing people
+Eoghan Spillane We have a similar law in Finland. They told us (in S&S-school) that its basically in place just so you have a legit reason to call cops on someone in a bar, even if they technically haven't done anything wrong other than be drunken assholes.

Salmon was more valuable and thus a bigger target for poaching
Salmon were generally from rivers owned by the toffs, commoners in possession of Salmon was thus always deemed a bit, erm... fishy...

So playing ding-dong-ditch incurs a bigger penalty than shooting a cannon?
Basically.
I'm guessing the cannon law was written before the ding-dong ditch law when money was worth more and nobody bothered to re-write it because it's not as if many people are likely to have cannons now, and there are probably other laws you're violating if you use dangerous objects near people.
Yeah I imagine various firearm laws with multi year if not decade sentences

"Being drunk in a pub"
That's the most ridiculous law I've ever heard.
Edit:
I had finally understood why this law has been implemented. BTW guys, drink responsibly. :)
Might sound like so, but the UK has a very specific definition of “being drunk”.
It’s based on the ability of the human body to process alcohol. Having some light headed fun is perfectly fine. It’s when you go over the limit of your body’s ability to process alcohol where problems start. And that’s a no-no. To be fair, as long you don’t do something stupid, nobody will charge you for being drunk in a pub. However, if, at that point, you attempt to buy alcohol, or you buy alcohol for someone who is already drunk, and you make a scene when the bartender or cashier refuses the sale, you could be in some serious trouble. Then the “being drunk” will be added to the charges on top of whatever else you did.
Ah yes the floor is made out of floor
@@kingping7979 it is illegal for the floor to be made out of floor
@@tomeaston2962 Yes
We have something similar in Sweden. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it's illegal to serve alcohol in a bar, to an intoxicated person.
Of course, I have never seen any bartender refuse anybody alcohol. Unless you're being a moron and makes a scene, then you're thrown out on the street. On to the next bar 🍻

Fun fact: The last law (Handling salmon in suspicious circumstances) is actually supposed to refer to illegal fishing, for example, if a Scottish fisherman goes fishing in Norwegian waters (which is actually surprisingly common, because Norwegian salmon is apparently really popular in Britain for some reason). However, while the law does specifically state that, it doesn't exclude other crimes. Thanks to another law, what Matt did was illegal (since he was the aggressor), but Tom's counterattack was perfectly legal, since it can be considered "self defence."
It wasn't self-defence: it was a revenge attack. Tom had already disarmed Matt, so was in no further danger.
beeble2003 Just because someone isn't armed doesn't mean they can't seriously harm you. And Matt was well within arm's length.

I can’t believe Mary Poppins committed a crime by allowing Bert and the kids to go fly a kite in the local park
It's actually quite a subversive book

Penalty for being drunk in the place you go to get drunk= penalty for demolishing someone’s house with a cannon
Actually, the fine was just for firing the cannon. There would be another charge for hitting a house. I think the law was more for the sound of the cannon disturbing people

illegal to be drunk in a pub. idk who came up with that. it's like it being illegal to be stuffed in a restaurant
Then there are a lot of stuffed chooks breaking the law :P
no, because you become drunk slightly after you drink, however you get stuffed as you eat
Its illegal to serve a drunk person
Being drunk endangers both yourself and others. Being full doesn't make you injudicious.
+Eoghan Spillane
We have a similar law in Finland. They told us (in S&S-school) that its basically in place just so you have a legit reason to call cops on someone in a bar, even if they technically haven't done anything wrong other than be drunken assholes.
