Yes, we need just a little more government, to regulate everything from sex, to speech, to healthcare.
Let the idiots rule.

*It is against the law to kiss for more than five minutes in Iowa.
*In Tremonton, Utah, a woman cannot have sex while in an ambulance. Punishment can be severe: she can be charged with a misdemeanor and have her name printed in the local paper.
* In Virginia, it is illegal to have sex with the lights on.
*Connorsville, Wisconsin prohibits a man from shooting off a gun while his female partner is having an orgasm.
*In Arizona, you may not have more than two sexual toys in your home.
*But Texas is a bit more lenient, you can have up to six before felony charges are presented.
*In Maryland and Minnesota, oral sex cannot be given or received anywhere.
*It is illegal to whisper �dirty� things in your lover�s ear during sex in Oregon. So cooing about switching laundry detergents is fair game, right?
*Men with moustaches are forbidden from kissing women in Eureka, California.
*In West Virginia, unmarried couples who live together and �lewdly associate� with one another may face up to a year in prison.
*In New York City, men may be fined $25 for gazing lasciviously at a female; a second conviction stipulates the offender wear a pair of blinders whenever he goes out for a walk.
*Adultery is still a crime in New Hampshire. However, there is some talk among lawmakers to take it off the books.
*In North Carolina, you must stay in the missionary position and have the shades pulled while having sex.
*Cleveland, Ohio does not allow women to wear patent leather shoes because by doing so, women may give passersby a sneak peek at their unmentionables. |

| How many of these are from the great, but lamentably gone, 19th Century? I don't know about you, but I miss the days when Christianity was the voice of the people. |

I wonder is it illegal to have sex in the bathroom of an airplane? I wonder if people ever get arrested for it?

| A good example of how local government is incredibly prone to passing inane laws which can unfairly infringe upon the rights of people passing through the area in question. |

Is that per kiss, or lifetime total, or what? Yata, can you get us the answer, please?

Talk about self-serving!
So easy to make laws; so hard to take them away.
