Stupid State Laws - Florida 11

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):

Florida

"Torpedoes may not be set off in the city."

That makes sense, you don't want some dumb Floridian blowing up a city while trying to impress his stupid friends on a dare.  Then again, shouldn't this one be chalked up to common sense?  Who in their right mind would want to blow a torpedo......oh yeah.  It's Florida.  The state known for its white trash residents.  Which brings me to another thought.  Wasn't Florida known for its over abundance of old people not that long ago?  In order to change the perception of a state that quickly is quite impressive.  Their residents must have been working overtime with their stupidity the past decade to be able to make the nation forget about their old people and now only picture a state full of hicks wearing jean shorts and NASCAR cut-off t-shirts.  Congratulations Florida, you truly are a one of kind.

"Rookie, look what we have here.  A law breaker!"
"But Sarge, this guy hasn't set off the torpedo."
"Good, let's make him set it off because I've always wanted to see one of these things go off.  Then we arrest him."
"Isn't that entrapment?"
"He won't know that, anyone dumb enough to own one of these won't know the law."
