Laws seemed to be getting passed faster then ever these days. Americans seem to be getting more interested in politics in general and the laws that are being passed. Passing all of these laws has taken attention away from some of the funny and strange laws that are still considered to be on the books though they are not necessarily enforced. Indiana is no stranger to some of these strange laws and some of these are so funny. These kind of make you think twice about saying that you have never done anything illegal since, according to these strange laws, I have broken the law on more than one occasion. Read these funny Indiana that is sure to make you scratch your head. I live here and some of them do not make since to me.

-It is illegal for a man to be sexually aroused in public.

-Baths cannot be taken between the months of October and March.

-Oral sex is illegal in Indiana.

- Indiana liquor stores may not sell milk. (I don't know if this is still against the law, but I am pretty sure that no liquor store does in Indiana)

-It is illegal to pass a horse on the street.

- A man may not back into a parking space because it prevents a police officer from seeing the license plate. (This one is enforced in a lot of parking garages and certain areas in our town)

-Grocery stores may not sell any type of cold liquor. (This one is still law in my area at least)

-It is illegal to sell cars on Sunday.

i liked the law about it being illegal to pass a horse. i ride horses and this would really be neat when you are riding to be able to enforce this law as some people pass you going 90 mile an hour and spinning their tires trying to get your horse to act up thanks for the laws that are still on the books really enjoyed them wonder if any of them would hold up in court lol

Oral sex is still disallowed in a lot of states. But I gotta say, some of those other laws are very strange, to say the least.
