Crazy Italians

And you thought we had weird laws in the US... It is now illegal in Turin, Italy to walk your dog less than 3 times per day. Pet owners found guilty of this type of animal abuse (letting their dogs rest, it would seem is now abuse) can be fined the equivalent of $650.

This law is complete nonsense, but it goes well with many other European laws, as socialist countries like Italy, France, etc. frequently tell their citizens how to do EVERYTHING or risk being fined. In Rome, you can't even lead your friends on an informal tour of the city, or you'll be fined big money for conducting a tour without a license.

Hey! Here's another crazy law in the U.S., to be more specific, California, that is pretty weird. I read this in Maxim and it said that it is illegal to fornicate with a dead body. What do you think of that?
