text: what are the goofy laws in oklahoma for?   i'm not from oklahoma but i can tell you that most goofy laws were set forth due to someone actually committing something relating to them or someone complaining about a situation that happened simular to it.  in turn if they had enough power or knew someone in power, they were able to get the law passed.     another fact is that most bureaucrats will be able to get redicilious laws passed in order to have a particular business flourish.  a great example of this is the illegalization of marijuana.  it is sad but it does happen....  if you are interested in oklahoma's nutty laws here is a list of them...you would be surprised that the other 49 states including other countries have just, if not more idiocy.......enjoy but at the same time cry.....  remember these are actual laws!      :) peace! -------------------------------------------------- it is illegal to have the hind legs of farm animals in your boots.   dogs must have a permit signed by the mayor in order to congregate in groups of three or more on private property.   it is illegal to wear your boots to bed.   fish may not be contained in fishbowls while on a public bus.   tissues are not to be found in the back of one's car.   oklahoma will not tolerate anyone taking a bite out of another's hamburger.   no one may spit on a sidewalk.   females are forbidden from doing their own hair without being licensed by the state.   cars must be tethered outside of public buildings.
