Most likely Troy.

 

We are from Arizona my dad says this is true.

 

Hunting camels is prohibited.

 

Explanation:

 

The US Army once experimented with camels in the Arizona desert, and eventually gave up. The remaining camels were set free, and are now protected.

 

It is unlawful to refuse a person a glass of water.

 

Explanation:

 

In the summer-time, with temperatures reaching topping 120 degrees,

often people will need water, but may not have the

money to pay for it (mainly applies to homeless).

 

It is in effect today with businesses they get a heavy fine if reported.

 

Convenience stores are the primary businesses who uphold this law.

 

 

 

According to dad these are on the books - the rest I am not sure just thought they were funny. :lol:

I didn't mean those. They're pretty much common sense and being a decent person in general.

 

I'm basically talking about

Cars may not be driven in reverse.

"I swear, officer! I pulled forward into that parking space and I couldn't leave without putting my car in reverse!"

 

That's not the only one, just giving an example.
