They are real, I've heard of them before. There are actually many laws that are stupid like this, One I read was in some state of USA, you have to take your rifle to church on sundays incase of a indian attack. Stupid now days but when it was made it probably mad sense.
Here I found the sire, www.dumblaws.com
Some laws in Alabama
Bear wrestling matches are prohibited.
Incestuous marriages are legal.
It is illegal to impersonate a person of the clergy.
It is illegal to maim oneself to escape duty.
You may not drive barefooted.
Dominoes may not be played on Sunday.
It is illegal to wear a fake moustache that causes laughter in church.
Putting salt on a railroad track may be punishable by death.
Boogers may not be flicked into the wind.
It is legal to drive the wrong way down a one-way street if you have a lantern attached to the front of your automobile.
You must have windshield wipers on your car.
You may not have an ice cream cone in your back pocket at any time.
Masks may not be worn in public.
Women are able to retain all property they owned prior to marriage in the case of divorce. However, this provision does not apply to men.
It is illegal for a driver to be blindfolded while operating a vehicle.
Stupid arn't they, will some one try the lartern on the car thing, funny as when you go to coart and get off.
Here two I had to point out. In New York it is legal for wemon to got topless in public aslong as it NOT for businees but it is illegal for wemon to wear body hugging cloths. So it ok to be naked but not to be suggestive, go figure??

Woman are treated worse than animals and as property over there.
Yup. I was also there 2 years ago (Kabul) and was told the same thing by the locals. I also saw video proof!
