People aspire to live in the Unites States of America. So many of them are just smitten by the idea of living there. You might be one of them too. But, did you know there are several strange things that are absolutely legal in America? I bet you wouldn’t know about all of them!
1. It’s legal to drive a tank around. Yes, on the road. That’s just weird!
Hell, yes. It’s perfectly alright for people in the U.S. to drive the tank on the road. They are required to deactivate the gun and make sure the vehicle has rear-view mirrors and quite possibly a rotating warning light. And also, they should have the money to buy one. Strange!
2. Yes, you can own a tiger. In fact, you can own any exotic species in quite a few states in the U.S. Coooool!
Five states have no exotic-animal laws. So theoretically, you can even own a tiger. Not that one would, but it wouldn’t hurt to have the freedom, right? In 14 other states, you just need the permission to take in exotic animals as pet. “Hey, can I have a tiger for a pet? I promise it won’t eat anyone up!” Bizarre.
3. See this military guy using a grenade launcher? Now picture a casual citizen using it. You can totally own a grenade launcher if you belong to the American soil!
Okay. This is way too much. It would be really cool to own and show off a grenade launcher but so not cool if you don’t have it and the people who don’t like you, do. It should be registered and should’ve passed the background check. Yes, that’s about it. What’s next? Rocket launchers?
4. Corporal Punishment is absolutely legal in 19 states. Are you kidding me?
It’s totally okay to hit students in 19 of the states. Lovely! How else would kids be in line? Teachers can use a paddle, their hands or rulers to discipline students by striking them on the upper thighs or backside. That’s inhuman.
5. Whoa. It’s absolutely okay if you have sex with animals. In fact, bestiality is even encouraged in Kentucky!
Whoa. This is so not cool. 11 states are all okay with you having sexual relations with animals. No kidding! They have taken #MyChoice way too seriously. In fact, it’s even encouraged in Kentucky! Nooooooooo.
6. Yes. You can fire a missile too, in South Carolina! Next we know, they would even legalize rocket launchers.
If you live in South Carolina, go to the Department of Commerce and get the permission to launch a missile. As easy as it can get! Now they can celebrate Fourth of July with great pomp and show. And noise. And style. And craziness.
7. You can totally misuse your exes pictures because revenge porn is legal. Only 28 states have laws against it. So uncool.
Do NOT send those racy pictures of yourself to your boyfriend. Especially if you are living in Indiana and Kentucky. Because only about 28 states have laws against revenge porn. Which means, anyone could use your pictures, leak them, or do whatever they fit right and you can do absolutely nothing about it.
8. Drinking under 21 is legal if you are at home with your parents. In Massachusetts, even a kid can drink!
Umm hmm. Drinking under 21 is okay. There are some conditions, however. Like, if you are home with your parents, it’s okay to drink liquor in about 29 states. In Massachusetts, even a toddler can drink as much wine as he wants. Hell, the parents can even shove it down his throat and they wouldn’t be liable to any punishment. Insanity at its best!
9. Even though gay marriage is legal, it’s also legal for the boss to fire someone on the grounds that he/she is gay. That’s absurd!
Gay marriage is legal in the U.S.A. But, your boss can legally fire you simply if you are gay. Cruel and inhuman. How can sexuality bother your work life? It’s beyond me. But, who are we to judge? We don’t even have same-sex marriage legal.
10. You can own this lethal fish called piranha because it’s legal. People who do own them, wow. Super cute!
Why leave the water world? It’s super okay in about half the states to own this lethal fish. Why would anyone want to do that, by the way? Many aquarium owners do have red-bellied piranha but, guess what? It’s safe to keep only one in case they tear each other apart. What a pretty picture!
11. Cannibalism. Yes, legal. Eat whatever and whoever you like but be careful not to murder someone!
Cannabis is illegal. But cannibalism is not. Perfect. So as long as you don’t murder a human and eat them, it’s FINE. It’s fine to eat dead animals that you find on the road. And it’s totally fine to eat humans too. Remember, you are not allowed to murder. At least, they have laws for that!
12. Sending unsolicited pictures to strangers is fine. Actually, people of Georgia even fought for it. Why? And, for strangers? That’s crazy!
I can’t stop laughing. People of Georgia defended to death for their rights to send unsolicited pictures. TO STRANGERS. Why do you want to do that? Either they are retarded. Or, they are retarded. No other explanation.
13. People can go topless in public..anytime and almost anywhere!
Human rights! In most states, if the women wants to go around topless, it’s their choice. There is no legal law that opposes it. However, it’s pretty obvious they don’t go around exercising their right.
14. Firing flamethrowers. See how cool that is? Legal? Yes. No background check required either. They must be so sure people aren’t going to misuse it.
This shouldn’t come as a surprise since even grenade launchers are legal. The only states that ban these are California and Maryland. Others don’t care, I suppose. It doesn’t even require a background check. LOL.
15. Is owning a katana legal in Japan? No. But, it’s legal in the U.S. The citizens are pretty lucky, I suppose!
Again, no surprise. You can own this lethal sword easily. U.S.A should take tips. Katana is illegal even in Japan, for god’s sake. There must be a reason for it, right?
Honestly, America, could you be any crazier? Like, WTF?!
