We have all already laughed at unusual laws, mostly at the laws in the US. Americans are the masters in accepting unusual (let's say foolish) laws and nearly every federal state has at least one funny legal provision.

In the English city of Liverpool a saleswoman may go topless, but only in shops with tropical fishes. In Hong Kong, a woman cheated by her husband is allowed to kill him. She may only do that by her bare hands, while she may kill the husband's mistress in any way she wants.
