ericone Posted December 15 Report Share Posted December 15 alot of these laws are in the books from a long time ago and just never got ammended but theyre rarely enforced. I think it's hilarious. My sister goes to school in Pennsylvania and cannot live in a house with all her friends because under the city's law, if there are 6 unrelated women living under one roof, it's considered a brothel....hahahah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
