Week 4 Dumb Laws

As you would guess this blog is all about dumb laws here are a few in Illinois.

You may be convicted of a Class 4 felony offense, punishable by up to three years in state prison, for the crime of “eavesdropping" on your own conversation.

Law forbids eating in a place that is on fire.

It is illegal to give a dog whiskey.

It is considered an offense to attempt to have sex with one's dog.

None of these laws make any sense I can slightly understand the have sex with a dog, but how is that even possible and eavesdropping on your own conversation. I call that paying attention and going to jail for three years that makes no sense at all.

I like dogs. Id never look at one in a wrong way though. I like to treat them with respect.

Who WOULD want to eat in a building that was on fire!?! Why do we need a law for it?

That's pretty sad that they need a law to forbid having sex with a dog. Anyone who would do that is pretty messed up.
