MOst of these laws aint stupid. They make sense to me or they're just from a different time when they were relevant.
Maine:
-Advertisements may not be placed in cemeteries
-To stroll down the street playing a violin is against the law.
-Shotguns are required to be taken to church in the event of a Native American attack.
-After January 14th you will be charged a fine for having your Christmas decorations still up.
One law I personally have a problem with is not being allowed to have the underglow on my car on while driving in the streets. It's only allowed for off-road use (parking lots, driveways etc.) What problem does my state have with that? It's not that distracting. I know most states outlaw blue and red lights because of police and firetruck vehicles, but green? Ugh.
