Stupid State Laws - Illinois

Here comes another post about a state law that still exists on the books and why it is ridiculous (to see them all, click here):

Chicago, Illinois

"Law forbids eating in a place that is on fire."

Another one of those awesomely stupid laws that should be chalked up to common sense but some idiot had to defy logic and cause lawmakers to create a law.  However, I like how they only outlaw eating in a building that is on fire.  So, I guess that means it is okay to watch TV while a house or building is on fire.  Or you could continue to take a shower or better yet, continue to get your bone on while the place is coming down around you and it is perfectly legal.  Thanks Illinois, you have created a law that has way too many loopholes for stupid people to legally live their lives while they might be burning to death.
