Silly Laws: Don’t Shoot Your Fish with a Crossbow

A town in Iowa has a board to regulate the sale of hearing aids. I’m sorry, what did you say?
I guess that noodling is out of the question in Kansas: they have a law that says you can be fined if you catch a fish without a pole or a net. In Wyoming, you can’t fish while possessing a firearm and in Indiana it is illegal to fish with a crossbow – I guess Daryl Dixon would be a bit of out his element now wouldn’t he?
Oral sex is illegal in the state of Oklahoma – guess it is a good thing that this one isn’t on the books in Arkansas or Washington, D.C., huh? In California, its unlawful to fake an orgasm, hmmmmm.
None of these silly laws even come close to holding a candle to the idea that no matter where I live in our great country I HAVE to buy health insurance or be taxed for not doing so.
I understand that we need laws in order to have a well running, non-Lord-of-the-Flies society, but when is it enough? When we will stop giving up our liberties just because the government says we should.
