Stupid State Laws - Delaware

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):

Delaware

"It is illegal to fly over any body of water, unless one is carrying sufficient supplies of food and drink."

First order of business, if you fly from one point in Delaware to another, you won't be crossing any large bodies of water.  I looked it up.  Technically, the border extends into the Delaware Bay, but once you cross that you are no longer in Delaware and therefore the state can no longer arrest you for not carrying sufficient supplies.  I guess they could arrest you if you say you are flying over the bay and you don't carry said supplies, but can they arrest you for a crime you haven't committed yet?  And once you do commit said crime, you are out of reach of Delaware law.  So, that begs the question - why?  This law is beyond stupid.  Sure, it's probably not a bad idea to carry supplies if you cross any body of water, but does that mean that if you cross a small stream, you have to carry these supplies?  Delaware, head back to the drawing board on this one, because it is dumb and pointless.

"Alright rookie, once they surface check to see if they have their sufficient supplies."
"What if they don't surface, Sarge?  Should we save them?"
"No way, there could be snakes in that water.  Plus, it will save us the paperwork from not having to arrest anybody."
