I kind of like this one. Way too many get dogs without any experience what so ever or knowledge.

Was about to say, how's that a dumb law?
We've got the exact same thing here, as does Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg...
Edit: Again, we have the same thing here. Seems normal law in Europe, retarded Americans don't get it? :E
Also, I looked at "dumb" Dutch laws, and it lists two:
- It is legal to smoke pot, buy it, or have less than 5 grams with you.
- Prostitution is legal but the prostitutes must pay taxes like any other business.
Still don't see the dumbness in either of these

This one makes sense to me. In a normaly country it would just be stupid, but in a country with as many people as they've got in china - its pretty good to stop people from breeding like rabbits.

It's called antinatalism policy.
From wiki:
| Quote: | | The policy was introduced in 1978 and initially applied to first-born children in the year of 1979. It was created by the Chinese government to alleviate social, economic, and environmental problems in China, and authorities claim that the policy has prevented between 250 and 300 million births from its implementation until 2000, and 400 million births from 1979 to 2011. The policy is controversial both within and outside China because of the manner in which the policy has been implemented, and because of concerns about negative social consequences. The policy has been implicated in an increase in forced abortions, female infanticide, and underreporting of female births, and has been suggested as a possible cause behind China's gender imbalance. Nonetheless, a 2008 survey undertaken by the Pew Research Center reported that 76% of the Chinese population supports the policy. |

Actually having a joint with PURE weed is allowed be be smoked in non smoker area's, as it has no tobacco in it (the non smoker policy applies only on tobacco product).
At least in the shops itself.
