Would you follow this law?
Years ago i had a certain arguement. Deep into it I (rhetorically) asked my opponent "If there was a law that said you must stand on your head for 1 minute at 12:00 noon everyday, would you follow it?" And to my suprise he emphatically replied "Yes." The arguement ended there, but still today i'm suprised at his response. so...

Re: Would you follow this law?
is there any punishment for not following it?
there are alot of stupid laws in many states that have never been taken off the book that just are not enforced. |

Re: Would you follow this law?
If this law were actually enforced, I would arm myself at all times, and shoot anyone who attempted to arrest me for non-compliance.
Obviously, I would eventually be murdered by law enforcement officers, but I would attempt to survive as long as possible and kill as many LEOs as possible before they got me. |

Someone once said that bad laws are the worst sort of tyranny.

And in the process killing several people who were only doing their jobs? The fact that you wouldn't ever do what you're saying makes this a little better... NT |

Re: Would you follow this law?
Only out of fear. There are many stupid laws I put up with because defying them is worse then just living with them.

Re: Would you follow this law?
I would have to be compelled by the real threat of some penalty before I would obey this law. I don't believe there is any moral or civil requirement to follow ridiculous unenforced or obsolete laws.
Regarding your freind, I would have found some ridiculous law in the jurisdiction of his residence and asked him to obey it. For instance, if your freind lived in Washington state ask him to obey this law (from www.dumblaws.com) All motor vehicles must be preceded by a man carrying a red flag (daytime) or a red lantern (nighttime) fifty feet in front of said vehicle.

I would start a revolution if this law was ever enforced.

Re: Would you follow this law?
Can't practically enforce this one without violating a privacy law or something. I'd give this law the same respect I give marijuana laws ^_^
