Ok, sorry, but that cant possibly be a law, either one of em. I live in Illinois. This whole thing is probably a bunch of ****, no offense to you Shooter, but I do not believe most of these laws.

I'm didn't make these up off the top of my head. Half of these are laws that aren't even enforced. Even look at the FAQ on the site:

Where do you find these laws?
>> From a variety of sources: the state/municipal codes, elected officials, books, newspapers, magazines, other web sites, and of course, visitors like you.

Are these laws real?
>> As far as we know, and unless they have been repealed, yes. We try to verify as many laws as we can in the state/muncipal codes, but we still haven't gotten around to everything, so if you know for a fact that a law isn't true, we'll take it off and look into it. In addition, the laws that have been verified and the exact code is available, we have them available under "Get the Full Text of this Law" link.

Can I still get arrested for breaking one of these laws?
>> Since many are so out of date, you most likely won't get arrested. However, some are still on the books and regularly enforced.
