The Most Unusual and Crazy Laws Still on the Books in Texas

Texas is known for so many things including hard-working people who still believe in southern hospitality. There are so many good people here in Texas, including people who have a lot of pride in our state.

And while we could brag about the state of Texas for days, there might be some things that we can do that would improve the Lone Star State including removing some old laws that are still on the books even if they aren’t strictly enforced. 

These laws were passed years ago to keep order, but over the years these laws don’t need to be enforced anymore, and most of them are just funny to laugh at now.

When you read these laws, it may make you wonder why some people would ever do things like throwing trash from a plane in Galveston. Was there ever a time that pilots would be throwing trash items from their aircraft?
