Stupid State Laws - Georgia 6

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):

Georgia

"Crosses may be burned on someone else’s property, so long as you have their permission."

Who in their right mind would want a cross burned on their property?  Oh yeah, it's the South.  Then again, isn't the point of burning a cross on someone's property supposed to send a message to that person?  So, once again, who would actually want a cross burned on their property?  No one that the people doing the burning want to send said message to.  This just seems like excused racism and Georgia should really look into that and just might want to change this law.

"Oh look Sarge, it's a Halloween bonfire."
"Rookie, how old are you?"
"23, Sarge."
"You're not from the South, are you?"
"Nope, born in Idaho."
"That explains a lot."
