"Putting salt on a railroad track may be punishable by death."
Uhhh....why? Neither part of this law makes sense. Why is putting salt on a railroad track a bad thing? I could understand if you put a fuck-ton of it on a railroad track, because it may cause the train to derail, but punishable by death? That seems a little harsh. What I really want to know is how many times this happened before they had to make a law about it? Once? Twice? A million? In fact, I want to know if there is anybody currently on death row who was found guilty of this crime. Just imagine that conversation:
Inmate #1: So, what are you in for?
Inmate #2: I killed an entire family and kept their eyes as trophies. You?
Inmate #1: I put salt on a railroad track.
Inmate #2: Hardcore, buddy. Hardcore.
"Bubba, I think we might be in trouble. How did I ever let you talk me into putting salt on that railroad track? Oh yeah. Natty Light, moonshine, and cocaine." |
