I take it your article is simply based on someone else's original (or not) work, and you have not actually looked to find out if what you are reporting here is true?
For example, there are no "laws on the books" at all concerning theft of horses in Tennesee, let alone imposing the death penalty for such an offense. Horses are considered "property" and are included in Tennesees laws concerning "Theft of Property" none of which offenses are punishable by death.
You state "Carrying a concealed bean snapper could land you in jail in Wichita, but it�s ok to carry a concealed weapon."
Well, not okay for you or I or most citizens of kansas which has a relatively stringent process to be licensed to carry a concealed weapon as do most other states and which imposes a criminal penalty on anyone who carries a concealed weapon without a license.
"A mustached man cannot kiss a woman in pub"
Sounds pretty funny, but there are no laws or regulations on the books in Kansas regarding facial hair of any type and the activities of those who wear it.
"No cherry pie ala mode for you! It�s illegal to sell it on Sunday." 'Fraid not. There are no laws or regulations in Kansas regarding Sunday sales of Ice cream or any kind of pie, ala mode. Or not
"You cannot charge admission to see a one-armed piano player." There are believe it or not three statutes and one regulation in Kansas concerning anything to do with pianos. None however concern one-armed pianists.
Nor are they any laws in Kentucky concerning women in swimsuits or bathing costumes or any kinds of suits or costumes or related to swimming and including reference to uniformed police or officers etc.
I'm not doing any more research, but you should. I found out what I found out in less than a quarter hour. We might find that many of these claimed laws never existed to begin with. Certainly we will find that most are not "on the books" today. Some are, most are not.
