Stupid State Laws - Alabama 3

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):

Alabama

"Boogers may not be flicked into the wind."

Holy shit, this is the funniest law I have ever seen.  Mostly because it is a real law that involves boogers, but also because it is apparently perfectly okay to flick your boogers willy-nilly as long as there is no wind.  Why in the hell would you make a law about flicking boogers and only make it against the law to do so 'into the wind'?  Sure, I might be able to see how some booger flicking madman was doing his thing on windy days to make sure that his snot bombs hit his targets from a distance, but what is going to stop him from taking his craft, perfecting it, and then going back on a rampage on a calm day?  Nothing if he lives in Alabama!  Jeez, lawmakers are dumb.  They didn't even have the foresight to just straight-up make it illegal to flick boogers at all.  Alabama, if you paid attention to your lawmaking us much as you do to football you could have avoided a potential disaster.

"But officer, it's not even windy out, so how is what I'm about to do illegal?"
"He's got us there, Sarge."
"Shut up rookie and start blowing to make it windy and arrest that punk!"
