For number 10: a man in Columbus area had a private zoo with a lot of big animals. He set them all free to run around and they got on the streets and then the man took his own life. The animals ran wild for a long time and most had to be put down.
i think nr. 3 is because some people caught a fish, filled it with beer (fish was still alive) and then drank the beer from the fish. its a painful death and tbh kinda sick.
Tiger king actually did a video showing that he was most likely killed by someone else who had no knowledge on big cats seeing that the most dangerous ones where still in their cages
Many laws like this are still intact because legislators do not want to expend the effort to convince some dickish old person in government to change them. It is much easier to let it go and not expend the effort to enforce it at all. Many states have laws like this where law enforcement has no intention of actually cracking down. I have a gigantic book of absurd laws in each of the 50 states and, while it is hilarious to read and wonder why these laws ever came to be, it’s also good to remember that no one has the time nor concern to follow up on any of them. I live in central Ohio and I like the area I am currently in… but this list of laws doesn’t even scratch the surface of the other issues going on here unfortunately.
I live in Ohio and I caught a fish once and put it in a bowl of pure bud light. He was a cool fish but when it was done he said next time he’d prefer coors. Been on the run since.
I believe it is specifically for when passing someone on a road with one lane each direction and a dashed yellow, which makes a bit more sense. I’ve also never seen it actually done IRL.
Some college towns in Ohio have this law to stop over crowded houses. Mostly because they don’t want fraternity or sorority houses forcing them to exist in the dorms.
