Fabulous! I particularly like that it is illegal to flag down a taxi whilst one is infected with the plague
A disproportionate number of those laws seem to be in Blighty.
What always gets me about these is that at some point somebody had to write these laws and people had to agree them. Which suggests they were tackling problems of the day. Now...Weshmen in Coventry? I can see how that might have been a problem when the Welsh were the enemy...likewise a Scotsman in the city of York holding a bow and arrow.
Even the Napolean thing has some basis in sense. But:
In Ohio, it is against state law to get a fish drunk.
What led up to that law being instituted? Was there a problem at some point with people getting fish drunk?
