silly laws
Quote by farmersboy
If you want a pee whilst driving a horse drawn vehicle its legal as long as you pee against the horses leg , bit difficult if you happen to be female i should think
Bit difficult for anyone I would think, don't think the horse would be too happy about that.
Another fine law for the SH masses:
It is illegal for two adult men to have sex in the same house as a third person.
You can only shoot a Welsh person with a bow and arrow inside the city walls and after midnight. (Chester)
You may not shoot a Welsh person on Sunday with a longbow in the Cathedral Close. (Hereford)
A license is required to keep a lunatic.
Placing a postage stamp that bears the Queen (or King) upside down is considered treason. (One for postie)
Anal sex is prohibited.

Hate to be in disagreement on the death penalty thing, but I have it on very very good authority (from some military police I know) that Piracy is still an execution-able offence; but only at sea. The anti-execution laws passed in 1998 apparently do not apply to naval law, at sea. So if you're caught at sea by a ship of the Royal Navy, or you're on one of the numerous wee islands, and protectorates (we still have some in the Caribbean), and found guilty of piracy by the vessel's Captain, they can still technically execute you, and it's a fair punishment. Wouldn't want to be the Navy Captain that orders that one through though. Even if the loophole is sound, and they can't nick him for it, me thinks the Captain's chances of promotion would be somewhat diminished!

Well I cant be arsed to look it up , but my guess would be its at the very least against the Geneva convention to summarily execute pirates . Having said that even if it was true , it would hardly constitute a 'silly law' .

Oh I agree it's far from silly. Most people think the Navy just hold exercises, and go touring around the world on their little boats, but it's not really made public knowledge (not secret, just no *advertised*) that they do a hell of a lot of anti-drugs, anti-smuggling and anti-piracy ops. Since all 3 activities can be considered "Piracy on the High Seas" or "Piracy against Her Majesties Vessels" and numerous olde-worlde offences, the Navy could, if they so wished, be executing a fair number of people. And as for the Geneva Convention, they'd get out of that (as well as the Law of Armed Conflict) by arguing that the pirates aren't lawful combatants, thus those treaties do not apply.
Sex God
No i never for a moment thought they just did exercises , they drink alot as well .
Sex God
if we get all the chavs together in their shitty souped up bodykitted corsa's and catapulted them out to sea, do you think the navy would oblige by executing the feckers that learnt to swim?
Sex God
Wouldnt work mate . the amount of fibreglass stuck to them deathtraps would float a battleship.
Sex God
but battleships have big guns just for shooting chav ditritus

obviously with a history of long as britain has and its its way of ...burn....piliging its way around the world for a millenia or to john wayne fans at least 50 lustrums....
we have accrued a lot of laws which for the sake of not having time in our seats of power (house of commons/lords) which were enacted some hundreds of years ago and never revoked (not sure if thats the right word)
for instance........
it is still illegal to eat mince pies on christmas day......this law goes back to the 17th century and was brought about by the quakers but never rescinded....
also....it is still legal to shoot a scotsman on sight in the isle of man......apparently theyre still worried that bonny prince charlie will stop off in douglas for a plate of manx kippers...
the list is endless......are there any you know of or am i just sking this for the sake of asking...
it's illegal to pass a shop withoutbuying me the best dress in the store...
And that law stands
2to1 on the latter
and 1 for postie....its still illegal to hold up the royal mail...offenders can be charged with treason to the crown....
high treason to the crown (commited by the sun every day) is still punishable by hanging... and not wallpaper either...
('

Sorry, not correct - specific offence in relation to interference with the mail. Nothing to do with treason.
Sorry - wrong again: Criminal Justice Act 2003 repealed all death penalties to bring us in line with the ECHR requirements in relation to the states obligation to protect life. :?
