25 Most Ridiculous U.S. Laws Still In Effect Today

#6 Alabama – Slingshots Are Contraband

For a state that’s so against gun control legislation, Alabama sure has a strong slingshot policy. No one can make, carry or use anything even remotely similar to a slingshot. The law reads “no person shall use, for the purpose of amusement or otherwise, any Alabama slingshot or any similar thing in the urban service district.

#5 Texas – Eye-Ball Sales Are Illegal

The lone-star state is the only place in America to pass a bill specifying that selling eye balls are illegal. Cornea transplant surgery hasn’t been around for long but that’s not why Texans sell their eyes. In 2009, a man was arrested for eating both of his eyes. He explained that it’s a delicacy in Texas and a 2010 investigation confirmed the claim.
