Here Are The Top Dumbest Laws In All The 50 States

Maybe this isn’t really that dumb of a law but… it’s illegal to discharge a firearm from a public highway. Not a bad idea to make that illegal but… frankly if you’re shooting off a gun from a public road I don’t think you need to really get that specific of a law to incarcerate someone over that. What about if you’re bicycling though? Does that count? Well, as long as you’re not biking over 65 mph, you should be fine, because it’s illegal to ride your bike over that speed limit. That’s right, if you get your bicycle up over 65 mph, you are not only under arrest, you are also a cyborg and must be killed before Skynet becomes self aware.
