I’m from Louisiana. The crawfish law is probably there to protect the crawfish industry. It is a way many people here make money to support their families. Love watching y’all.
Here is the official verbiage in the statute for it being illegal to wear a mask in Florida... 876.12 Wearing mask, hood, or other device on public way.-No person or persons over 16 years of age shall, while wearing any mask, hood, or device whereby any portion of the face is so hidden, concealed, or covered as to conceal the identity of the wearer, enter upon, or be or appear upon any lane, walk, alley, street, road, highway, or other public way in this state. History.-s. 2, ch. 26542, 1951. I guess this means everyone is breaking the law on Halloween. LOL 😋
Here, in the Sooner State, it is also illegal to bathe your mule indoors. (Barns are excluded) You can also not walk on the sidewalk while eating a burger in Love County.
Pretty sure the crawfish law is in regards to traps. Crawfish are caught in traps that are laid out in water and left for hours or days then pulled up. Poaching someone's traps of crawfish is a no no in the bayou's.
@@andrewjackson8421 Shrimp? I think you are thinking of lobster? "Crayfish. Crayfish, also known as crawfish, crawdads, crawlfish, crawldads, freshwater lobsters, mountain lobsters, mudbugs, or yabbies, are freshwater crustaceans resembling small lobsters (to which they are related). Taxonomically, they are members of the superfamilies Astacoidea and Parastacoidea" en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crayfish Yes, both Crayfish and shimp are exoskeletons, but they are not really the same. Yes they do have some similarities.
Here’s the code for stink bombs in Alabama: “(a) A person commits the crime of criminal use of a noxious substance if he knowingly deposits on the land or in the building or vehicle of another, without his consent, any stink bomb or device, irritant or offensive-smelling substance, with the intent to interfere with another's use of the land, building or vehicle.” Title 13A. Criminal Code § 13A-7-27 And here’s why: Bolin v. State :: 1957 - the person in question, Mr Henry H Bolin, had in his possession the materials to make homemade tear gas. In 1957, the Civil Rights Act was signed into law by President Dwight D Eisenhower. So people were trying to stop the segregation of schools in the South, the easiest way to do this? You guessed it Tear Gas and Stink Bombs! Now you know, the rest of the story.
J T - as to stink bombs in Alabama. Very obvious, once seen. Thanks for the view. As to harvesting seaweed in New Hampshire, the reason is that seaweed is a major part of the marine ecosystem. If there is no seaweed, eventually there will be no lobster, and other such things. And even tho it is 'just' a NH state law, it is not the only one, by any stretch. Most states, or counties or towns, or where ever there is a shore, at least on the East coast, USA, generally have the same restriction. Believe me, it is very 'enforceable'. I know. As a Bay Constable, I have enforced it. It is not meant to prevent a private citizen from harvesting a little bit for their garden, to my experience, but rather to prevent the wholesale harvesting of it, on a commercial level, which could easily decimate the local ecosystem. Anyone who doesn't believe that, and there are a few, needs to go back to school, or listen to someone who makes their living from the sea, or, just rot in hell. It actually gets even more complicated, but that should do. There are ways to harvest a little bit and actually do good, but you can also mess things up, even for the little bit you take, if not done wisely. Being small potatoes tho, it doesn't much matter.
@ - Ah,even I know how to pronounce his sur name, and I failed French as a second language, three times. As to marzipan, who even knows about that? My mother used to force us to make it every Christmas, but she would only beat us with a rubber spoon. I'm kidding of course, we loved to make marzipan, as otherwise, she would have beaten us with a wood spoon. If there was any shame, it was that we had to eat it, again, quite willingly, but what a shame, considering how pretty it was. Same for the ginger bread house. I was forced to.
In England, you can’t handle salmon “suspiciously,” can’t die in parliament, can’t shake your rugs out the window before 8am and you can’t ride the bus if you have the plague. These are actual laws. Lol
@@emmy_cam - That is very interesting. As well, as far as I know, if a woman is pregnant, she can ask to piss in Copper's hat, and it must be allowed. I don't know if it was on the books, or is now, but that's what I've heard. Of course, if so, it would have to be done demurely, but what do I know? It might seem a little weird to you, but in New York State, anywhere a man can go without a top, so can a woman, which kinda makes sense. This has been for 30 years now, or so, but it really doesn't beg much mention, as it rarely happens otherwise. It really doesn't come up to much, to be honest, but if a woman wants to, on a beach where men are allowed to, meaning 'all', as men go topless all the time, it is allowed for women to do, which is only right, and our Supreme Court agrees. To be honest, men or women, but if you want to get naked, to whatever degree, there is a place, just a little futher down, at which no one will really notice. Tits out in front of children, somehow is considered weird in the States, but I don't think so, but nor do I care. Such things are all around me anyway, even when I was a child, the more so, the more likely. No offence meant.
It is illegal to carry an ice cream cone in your back pocket in Alabama. Not from Alabama, but this law has always cracked me up & made me wonder why this law came about.
In North Dakota, it's illegal to lie down and fall asleep with your shoes on. In North Dakota, it's illegal to keep an elk in a sandbox in your backyard. Horses are prohibited from sleeping in bathtubs.
Danny J. - that was so funny. First of all, I love North Dakota. Secondly, well that you shouldn't fall asleep with your shoes on, is just obvious. The 'elk in a sandbox', is new to me, but I love it. As to horses sleeping in bathtubs, I thought that was about mules in tubs in Pennsylvania. Maybe it's just six of one, or a half dozen of the udder. It's hard to figure, but I love all the Dakotas, seriously. I know there are many Badlands, but now that I think of it, the one I mean, is in South Dakota. Too bad, as it was such a great story. Not only did we love it, but my wife almost got raped, and I was nearly murdered in the process, which is why they call it the Badlands, no doubt. It was a lot funnier than that, merely because we survived. No bullshit about it.
Haven't watched you two for a while since becoming a mom, you guys always get me laughing, not even Covid can stop Joel and Lia! Thank you for your videos! ❤❤❤
I live in Toronto, Canada there is a law that says that you cannot drag a dead horse down Younge Street on a Sunday. I guess I have to do it Saturday instead.
I knew a guy in the Air Force whose callsign was A.B. It stood for Ass Blaster. No matter what he ate, his farts smelled bad enough to empty the barracks.
There's a law in Georgia, where you cannot buy ice cream if you're a kid 13 and younger without a parent or guardian being with you when you go to an ice cream parlor.
I feel like this law would actually help spread the STD not stop it. If your married your only going to be sleeping with 1 person for the rest of your life so you only have the ability to give it to that 1 person. If you can’t get married bc you have an STD and you sleep with several people throughout the rest of your life your actually spreading the disease around.
In LA county, it is apparently illegal to lick a toad. In Hollywood, it is, or used to be illegal to drive more than 2000 sheep down Hollywood Blvd. at one time. Don’t know if these are true or not, but they’re pretty funny anyway!
Is it possible that the toad thing was due to a stupid trend of kids licking certain breeds of toads that excreted a hallucinogenic substance that was making people dangerously sick?
@@nukemanmd That's the most plausible answer, actually. I don't know for sure (never having lived anywhere near to California), but that sounds reasonable. EDIT: Found out that you're right. (See my reply to Joseph Dominguez.)
@@josephdominguez2814 Actually, Stephen is right. The law isn't intended for toads in general, but the Colorado River Toad, also known as the Sonoran Desert Toad, also known as _Bufo alvarius._ This particular toad's venom contains _bufotenine,_ which can cause hallucinogenic effects, which makes it a _controlled substance._ And that is why it is illegal to lick a toad.
I love this one. In Georgia, no one may carry an ice cream cone in their back pocket if it is Sunday. It's an old law that was put in place to prevent stealing. Not to stop people from stealing ice cream, but from stealing horses. People would stick an ice cream cone in their back pocket to lure horses away.
Great video Legends. Every state has laws on their books that reall don't make much sense. I live in Kentucky and I will have to research some of their laws. I do know that at one time in Pennsylvania you were required to take a blood test in order to be married so that you weren't carrying an STD but I think that law has since been rescinded. As far as not being allowed to use utensils to eat fried chicken is actually somewhat good considering the fact that you have always had fingers even before you ever had a fork. Certain people here in the states that don't want to wear a mask and think they don't have to are called Karens because they think they are better than everyone else. This is just my take on some of these. Stay safe and don't break the law.
Crawfish are a big deal in Louisiana. They are a symbol of the traditional Cajun culture, and there are many people who still make their living fishing for crawfish. Stealing crawfish from another fisherman's trap is poaching. People who poach are taking money out of another person's wallet, and food off his family's table. Poachers are lucky if the law catches them before the aggrieved fisherman does, because in the latter case, the poacher just might never make it out of the swamp.
@@parkerwilkins5495 - I'm not a lawyer, so take this with a grain of salt, but I have worked on 'government jobs', that required me to know part of the CFR, the Code of Federal Regualations, for the company to be able to work for, and I for the company, on Federal jobs. I understand, these are just regulations, not laws, that have to be complied with, if you want a Federal contract, but it led me to wonder, why is it so hard to pass a Federal law, that seems so obviously right to me? What I discovered was, this is a pretty wide country. What might make sense in Missouri, might not make sense in Mississippi, or Michigan (just to pick on some 'M' states), and I came to realize, it's not such a bad thing that Federal Law needs to be well discussed and considered.
@Sam Bacon (and PackA) - I basically agree with both of you, but there aren't as many 'Laws' as 'Regulations', from my view, all of which are fought over tooth and nail, as they apply to everyone. TL/DR warning, as usual. The 'Code of Federal Regulations (CFRs) are required to be adhered to if you want a Federal contract of some sort, but otherwise it is only meant as a suggestion, which most business' follow, just to avoid trouble and to do right, being the theory. It is encyclopedic, taking up at least 3 if not 4 feet of a bookshelf (or more), republished every year, with addendum's in-between. I'm not an expert, but that's my understanding. I mostly only know the part that pertains to Maritime, but you can find all of it on-line at no cost. The physical books, you have to pay a share of the publication for. This is the Federal government tho, so it's only meant to cover costs. As I understand it, all variations to the CFRs are approved by Congress, both Houses. Usually suggested by a special Committee, to be rubber stamped, but argued if needed. Actual 'Laws', are even more difficult to come by, and for good reason in my mind. As best I know, you can not end up in prison for not complying with CFRs, where as clearly you can end up in prison, regarding Federal Laws. However, in many cases, not following the CFRs, might mean you are violating some Federal law or another, as they tend to be based on suggesting how best to comply. 'But I followed common sense and all the CFRs', might get you a pass in a Federal court, the first time, if it comes up. Often, in Maritime at least, not following the CFRs is often used to build a case that you actually violated the law, and willingly so, which never looks good in court. Are there too many Federal Laws or Regulations, brighter minds will know.
@Sam Bacon - Sam, I couldn't agree more. I feel the exact same way, which is why I tolerate it, even when it is not as I wish. I had something more to say, barely, but it dissapeared on me, but I have a tracking of it. To the degree it is redundant, forgive me, but I didn't really have a chance to edit it. Considering other things on my plate, all I can do is re-send it. I hope it makes sense (this was written before I read what you just wrote). Sam, Jeff and Glass - I agree with you. The only two things I could add, and I don't know if they are true, but regarding chickens as well. I heard they were imported from America, in the broad sense, but Europe without chickens 'pre-America', seems hard to imagine. It must have just been turkeys. Also, from what I've heard, is that there were tomatoes, that came from the East, pre-America, but, even by the Italians, they were considered poisoneous, which the leaves were (as I know it), but the fruit wasn't, being nightshade of a point, meaning decorative but not considered edible, until about 1800 or so. Maybe true, maybe not. As to cranberries and blueberries, I've picked a few too many. How they couldn't have existed in the bogs of the UK is beyond me, but maybe they didn't. As far as I know, they still don't, but what do I know? Also, just by folk-lore, but potatoes made their way to Europe from the Americas, as you said, and I believe so. If it's true or not, I don't really know, but ironic, if so, in that it was a famon of which that led to a major immigation to the States of Irish people, and part of my family, around 1800, was a part of that, or so I've heard, by orally history.
@Sam Bacon - You clearly know your stuff. I forgot, but you reminded me, the early forms of pewter were lead based and anything acidic, even apple cider, could cause it to leach. I think later forms of pewter were more tin based and might not have had those problems. I forget who it was in particular, but probably the Irish, who were exceptional tin miners, which led to a fair amount of immigration to the States, particularly after gold, at least by 1849. Whoever it was, they had exceptional skills at tunneling out ore. What you say about chickens, tomatoes and potatoes, all makes sense. I would add squash and corn (maize) to that as well, but again, I don't really trust what I know, or have read. Perhaps even beans as well, but it is hard to imagine Europe without them. even pre-America. There is folk-lore here, LI, NY to me, that says the American Indians, however you want to call them, taught the European invaders, a large part of my heritage, all about the 'Three Sisters'. That would be, bury your scraps, mostly fish heads and then plant corn, squash and beans. The beans, grow up the corn and the squash grows around it. Thus, the Three Sisters. My home waters are called the Three Sisters Harbor, for that reason. The only other thing to add, again, not really knowing if it is true, but supposedly, Napolean served banquets with aluminum plates, as at the time, it was more expensive than gold. If that's true, eventually they learmed how to smelt aluminum and now we make foil of it. As to cranberries and blueberries, I have no idea why they haven't made it to the UK and beyond. Maybe because they have Sloes, which are very similar to our Beach Plums, and are sort of a cross between both. I know they have roses there, but no one I've spoken to knows a thing about gathering the salt swept stragglers, to boil them down to a syrup, resembling honey. As well, I know they have 'sea aspargus' there, but apparently no one cares to collect it, for fresh or for a pickle.
Kentucky native here... Dumb Kentucky Law: It's illegal to carry an ice cream cone in your pocket in Kentucky. Not sure why, or how it came about, but we learned about it in school.
It is said that in the US a person breaks at least one law every day. Speeding, not wearing a seat belt, underage drinking, using unsecured wifi, playing poker for money at home, not updating your drivers license when you move... just to name a few common ones. My niece was put in jail for 15 days for giving her neighbor a prescription pain pill. One Pill got her 15 days in jail and a felony record. She had no prior record before that. Police State USA!
Why would 2 Socialized Europeans understand the outrage a lot of Americans have against being forced to wear masks? If it were 1773 and we were talking about the laws in Colonial America, Joel would just say.."pay the tax"! Nah!
I know right, they make it sound that the US is the only country where some people are opposed to wearing masks. They probably don't watch news about their own country.
I’m sure you wear a shirt every time you expect to receive service, right? It’s the same thing. Pick your battle. The childlike attitude to anti-mask wearing is exhausting. Just wear it and then go about your day. Like they said there are so many other laws you choose to follow though out your day. Yet you all are hellbent on not wearing a mask? It’s a privileged mindset at its finest.
@@lork92 If masks work and you feel safer wearing one, go right the hell ahead but for you to think forcing me to wear one to protect you from me is shirking your own responsibility to protect yourself.
@@patrickstracener5329 So...I'll drive 55, but won't complain if you drive 95 on the same stretch of road? I'm looking out for my own safety, but shouldn't worry about your recklessness around me?
I just love this... you guys are so cute. "Mary-land" is actually pronounced, "Mare-eh-land" with emphasis on 'land'. I used to own a pet rat. Very cute. They make great pets... like hamsters. Crawfish are kinda like little lobsters. I think their meat actually tastes like lobster. It's a BIG DEAL in Louisiana. People make their livlihoods with crawfish. That's likely why it's not any other fish. Many of these laws are very old and not enforced. Not that they should've ever been put into law but someone forced it through. And as a final note... good heavens it would be a travesty to outlaw Joel's bum... now the noise and odor it might produce is another story! LOL
In regards to "the noise and odor it might produce"... there's at least one city in Texas where it is illegal to "emit an obnoxious odor while on an elevator".
@@turnt983 In Maryland there's actually more than one way we say the name. I learned some people can say it differently sometimes without even noticing it. Some pronounce the E more than others but I think it generally is Mair-lin. Glad to see someone from Maryland too. 😊😊
Speaking of illegal acts, a question for your next Q and A: If you could steal one thing in the world, have it be yours forever, and have no repercussions, what would you choose?
A few comments. As a Kansas native, the tire squealing ban actually promotes safe driving. If your tires make noise, you're exellerating too fast or having to break too hard or driving on bald tires or bad breaks. As Kansas does not require periodic vehicle inspection, this serves as a tool for law enforcement in finding unsafe drivers.
it is the modern equivalent of copying records/videos and passing them out to friends. it's also why most streaming services have ways of flagging accounts that are in use on too many devices at a time.
Crawfish law: In Louisiana crawfish are a huge part of the fishery market, and this law actually pertains to the commercial production, capture, farming, and free fishing of crawfish. It is in alignment with standard theft laws (any theft over $1000 is a felony and can see imprisonment of up to 10 years anyways). Theft of crawfish traps is highly common and once a crawfish is trapped in a person's marked trap, it becomes their property. Private and Professional fishing of crawfish is highly competitive, especially because the amount of money earned depends on the haul brought in.
Hi how are you today ? I watched Joel's most recent vlog on his channel and I loved it so much unfortunately I am 13 and have school tomorrow but I stayed up to watch this video you both inspire me to be myself and are just amazing RU-vidrs and stay safe and have a good week
I live in Gainesville Georgia and it is the chicken capital of the world. Although everyone is aware of the law, I have never seen it enforced. Just down the road in Atlanta, it is illegal to tie your giraffe to a street Pole.
I live in Gainesville, GA too.. the chicken law was enacted during Civil War time when a local military general invited a northern general to dinner & served him chicken so that when he used his fork to eat it the northern general could be arrested! Lots of wacky laws still on Georgia Code.. illegal to carry an Ice Cream Cone in your back pocket on Sunday 😂
I kinda wish screeching tires was illegal here (ct). I have a neighbor who is very proud of his big truck. He floors it while staying in place and screeches his tires while burning rubber. It makes tons of smoke and it comes into my windows. He's an ass.
The sad part is that dumb laws never get removed! All they do is pass more and more laws. It seems they either want to outlaw something or make it mandatory!
The problem is that I don’t mind wearing a mask but there are medical conditions that prohibit covering airway. I just want people to be adults and stop getting in people’s faces over this. So far no luck
The reason people are upset about the masks is thet some government officials are saying you have to wear a mask and social distance while also saying that certain groups of don't have to as long as they support blm
That's a complete fucking lie and you know it. Most BLM protesters were wearing masks and there's really not a lot you can do to stop Americans exercising their right to protest injustice in mass. There's a difference between that and just being a dick and not wanting to wear a mask in the middle of a pandemic just because.
Yes alot of them were wearing masks but they weren't staying 6 feet apart and that's just the ones the far left media shows plus most of those so called protesters aren't protesting they're rioting burning down buildings isn't protesting its rioting
@@calvinpage4070 Yes, the far left media owned by billionaire white guys, who love wars, hate universal healthcare, and hate ANTIFA. GTFOH. Stop watching Fox News & read a book.
What do you mean hate antifa they're always praising antifa calling the "peaceful protesters" you CNN loving idiot how about you pick up a history book and learn about the democrats from a legitimate source fyi I read all the time do some research instead of relying on the left wing biased media who get all they're information from Twitter and Facebook
@@calvinpage4070 I don't watch CNN or cable news at all. And no nobody's calling ANTIFA peaceful protestors. They're calling the Black people tired of police murdering unarmed people "peaceful protestors", because as the study showed 93% of BLM protests are peaceful. Virtually everybody knows ANTIFA are definitely not peaceful. Again, turn off the Fox News and learn about politics, G. and I'm not a Democrat, so don't bring the Democrats up to me. I vote Green, sorry.
Laws like these need to be repealed. Many times, if the government or the cops don't like you, they can charge you with one of these oddly specific laws.
Crawfish is the boom i had to have an LA local to show me how to shell one but their is Crawfish everything down in LA. And i know I will go to LA just to eat Crawfish but I live next door, but they know what they are doing
You two are hilarious! And now the secret is revealed...Lia blushes at embarrassing remarks! That would open the opportunity for so many joke possibilities!! Great work you guys..love your posts.
Next time someone finds fault with me wearing a mask, I’m going to ask them if they think they should be able to drive on the opposite side of the road! Love it
Lol comparing driving on the wrong side of the road (into oncoming traffic) is hardly the same as not wearing a mask. Lol. This made me laugh. Joel’s logic cracks me up
Maybe not to you but to someone who has a preexisting condition or is elderly, it is scary. It's been terrifying to me because of my own personal health issues that so many people don't take this virus seriously. I have 4 children and I certainly don't want to die because of someone else's ignorance and selfishness. All because of politics. Only in the US are people so arrogant to think this is some kind of democrat hoax to take down Trump. Yeah sure, the whole world is in on it. Please, we may be an important country, but there are so many people in other countries who are disgusted that some in the US think we are so important that the rest of the world destroyed their economies and faked a pandemic to take down an American President. The arrogance is just astounding and embarrassing!
There is a general rule when looking at some of the old and weird laws of the USA.... we carry guns. Alcohol + Gambling + Gun = Bad night at the bingo hall. Second general rule to apply to these laws, there is a really good chance the committee who wrote it were drunk off theirs asses. Just saying.
We used to have a laws in New York State called the "blue" laws, we couldn't buy alchohol before noon on Sunday and we couldn't buy toilet paper at any time on Sunday!
I do too, but in some states it can be an even bigger pain to get them taken off the books. For example, Louisiana still has an anti-sodomy law (despite the federal government declaring such laws unconstitutional). They're reviewing a bill to revoke it, but oh, no, we can't have THAT, can we? “This bill was written because the far left wants to undermine our other laws that protect family and traditional values that the people of Louisiana hold dear." That was from one of their state senators. Conservative Christian group Louisiana Family Forum has lobbied against the bill on similar grounds. "The current law spells out community standards of morality. We believe Louisiana law is instructional in nature and is written to reflect the values of the citizens of the state." So a lot of laws end up still being on the books, despite being outdated, unconstitutional, or unenforceable, because *someone* lobbies to keep them. The state legislature would often rather keep the laws on the books and simply not enforce them, instead of dealing with the fucking pain-in-the-ass lobbyists that want to keep it for whatever bullshit reason. In other cases, especially in Texas and Alabama, a lot of laws were added to the state constitution as amendments (which is why the Texas constitution is 85,000 words and the Alabama constitution is 388,000 words long). It's a LOT harder to get an amendment repealed than it is to get a law repealed.
Genuinely hilarious! I'm for Joel as President but Lia has to be First Lady of Fun and Style. I'll be available as Minister of Cheese and Prosecco. This could work! Lotz of fun mates! Thanks! L&C 👍♥️😘🇬🇧
My grandpa had a book called Wacky Laws and Weird Statutes. I used to read it all the time and I got a kick out of it. I also remember a few of these from the book. In Virginia, if two trains meet on the same track, neither can move until the other passes, and it’s also illegal to sneeze on a train
I tried wearing the mask when my home health nurse came, last week, but I have COPD and it makes it too hard to breath and since I didnt have any symptoms and never leave the house, the nurse didnt mind if I took it off.
@@classicalhero7 No, but if you have the virus, it does stop your cough from potentially giving the disease to someone 12 feet away. No, really... there are scientific studies that prove that the plume of air from a cough can maintain its coherency up to 12 feet. But if you wear a mask (depending on the quality of the mask), that distance is reduced to as little as a few inches. It's about protecting *other people* from *you,* not the other way around. Also, it doesn't even require a cough or sneeze. If we're in the same room, facing each other at a typical distance of about 2 feet, and we're talking (and not wearing masks), then tiny particles of your spit are getting on me, and tiny particles of my spit are getting on you. *Everyone* spits when they talk, whether they realize it or not. And those particles of spit are big enough to carry viruses. Unless you have a health restriction that exempts you, wear a mask when you're in public places, for the sake of people who might be especially vulnerable to the virus (especially the elderly and those with compromised immune systems, e.g. transplant recipients).
Yesss. I don't WANT to wear a mask, but I do to try and avoid getting the virus (who shall not be named). Having asthma, it could potentially be fatal for me since the virus (that shall not be named) attacks your lungs and could send me in the ICU (intensive Care Unit) on a respirator and if that doesn't help I could die. Who wants that? Not me. I am very thankful that no one in my family to date have been infected by it. Why? Because we adhere to the recommendations to wear a mask in public and take other precautions to avoid exposure. Crawfish do look like mini lobsters. They don't really taste like them though but are very good. They are very small and could fit in your hand for the most part. They don't have crawfish in England? The seaweed law for New Hampshire is hilarious. I live in NH and didn't know about that law. Many states have bizarre laws that are not followed.
