Governing a big country is a tough job, and you are bound to be hated by half of the population you're ruling. Now, bear in mind, that the person on top, is also responsible for the laws, upon which, the whole democratic system is based. And laws are passed after voting of the Congress, sometimes public vote, and then an affirmation of the president. With these dumb laws, that we have compiled below, we're not sure, where common sense got lost.
Did you know, that there's a crazy law in Juneau, Alaska prohibiting you from bringing your pet flamingo into a barbershop? Or that in Tenessee you might be prosecuted for sharing your Netflix password? And if you're from Indiana that you are banned from catching a fish with your bare hands? It sure would be interesting to know, why these weirdest laws in the U.S. became laws in the first place.
Though most of these laws sound incredibly dumb now, once they've had, or still does have, a real pretense. For example, the New York law against people wearing masks in public places is to prevent a mass crime or a riot, since you don't know the assailant's identity undercover. And the Arizona one, about camel shooting prohibitions, stems from United States Camel Corps, an army experiment to use these animals for military forces. So there, as improbable as these laws might seem, they do have comprehensive explanations. Scroll down below for our list of weird rules in the U.S. and share if you know more of these!

My guess is someone fell into a melting hot cheese tank after dozing off and the family sued the factory
That makes me remember the scene in the W***y Wonka and the Chocolate Factory where Agustus Gloop falls into the river of chocolate and basically contaminates the entire friggin river of chocolate and would probably make millions of people sick. That could also be a possible scenario.

i consider my house a cheese factory... i sleep there every night... im a fugitive!
your touring a cheese factory when all of a sudden your tired you go sleep on a piece of cheese.... yawn! you wake up and your in cuffs
If your a baby and they fall asleep aren't they going to jail
Me: *walks into cheese factory* Me: I'm tired *sits on chair and falls asleep* Cop: *looks at me* Hey you! You're under arrest! Me: ????
But all I did was eat some cheese and somehow I found myself sleeping. ( sarcastic voice )
You know what South Dakota? F**k you. Cheese is life. (Anyone tried gouda?)
I live in South Dakota and I am not sure if there is any cheese factories here.
There's not because falling asleep in a Cheese Factory became such a epidemic they had to shut them all down.

I'm from Alabama and it's also illegal to carry an ice cream cone in your back pocket... Just FYI

Ok this one makes some sense... but the fact that it is a law is disturbing... were people actually selling their kids at one point? (I'm sorry if that was a stupid question, I'm only fifteen)

These laws are very absurd and don't actually provide any real use (unless to make me laugh). :)
In Gainesville, Georgia it's illegal to eat fried chicken except with your hands.
In Czech republic was quite crazy law. In case a cyclist caused accident where somebody was hurt he/she could got a year in prison and fine up to 50000 CZK (nearly 2000 USD). Even when the only harmed person was himself/herself. Yes, you could get $1000 fine for falling from your bicycle...
A friend told me that some other country it is illegal to rob a bank with a bullet proof vest XD
