In South Dakota, if there are more than 5 Native Americans on your property you may shoot them!
In Vermont it is illegal to deny the existence of God
In Wyoming you may not take a picture of a rabbit in the month of June

And stay away from Texas! Not only are there too many rednecks and homophobics, it's legal to shoot someone on your property if you THINK you are defending your posessions. Not just yourself and people, but posessions. I saw a TV special about a guy that was behind on his car payments and the repo guy came at night to take it away. Blam. Dead. "I thought he was stealin' my car." Zero ramifications!
On the other hand, my sister in Oregon says they have "domestic partner" laws - she is on her partner's medical insurance and vice-versa because it's state mandated. It wasn't the right time to surprise her, so I didn't ask her if it was a hetro-only law!
