In North Carolina, it's illegal for unmarried men and women to cohabitate together.  Of course, nobody enforces it.

Kind of surprising, that could probably be a great source of revenue. Fine people $50 the first time, $100 the second time and so on. As long as they dont include jail time, people will pay, the cities will make money and the great cycle of the government sucking continues.

I've always thought the public intoxication law was dumb. So a drunk dude is stumbling down the sidewalk...whose he hurting, exactly? I also think marijuana should be legalized. Its far less deadly than the two most LEGAL drugs on the market, alcohol and nicotine.

I agree. But then again I'm a Libertarian, so what the fuck do I know about anything?

Maybe they want to protect the drunk dudes from themselves. And perhaps they want to protect their city's rep where tourists are concerned.

I agree about the marijuana thing vis-a-vis alcohol and nicotine.

Public drunk law is fine, the way an officer might want to interpret a givin situation should show disgression. No legalizing weed ! Some things are sacred ! They just need to get off the urine test crap. Coke head or crackhead is one thing, high on the job is BS but being scoped for weekend puffers is almost Nazi and that comming from me! lol! Maybe we could get national health care from taxs on refers, yarite ! just throw her in the "general fund"
