Not as wide open as you thought:
- [A] county law (Clark County Code 10.32.100) says even spectators at [organized dog fights] can be arrested.
- A Las Vegas law has reserved a special place in hell for you (Las Vegas Municipal Code 7.32.110) if you referee an organized dog fight.
- While it's illegal for locals to shoot most animals here unless it's to defend life and limb or as part of an organized hunting party, county leaders have no problem with you blasting ... each and every serpent you come across (10.32.110).
- Luckily, baby chicks, rabbits, duckling or other young fowl are slightly more protected here. According to local codes, it's illegal to dye them a different color either for ... giggles or -- we kid you not -- "to conceal their identity" (County Code 10.32.200 and Las Vegas Municipal Code 7.32.240).
- [Y]ou'd better not trip old Trigger or try to push him over. That's one equine indiscretion that could cost you up to $1,000 and six months in county jail (10.32.250).
- County Code 10.36.020 and Las Vegas Municipal Code 7.36.040 issue a stern warning - almost an edict, really - against letting Mr. Bojangles drop a biscuit on your neighbor's yard. If Scooter does take his morning constitutional during your daily stroll together, you'd better pick that ... up. Failure to do so can cost you $1,000 and up to six months behind bars.
- Well, if you give that revolver to (drunken) Harry for his birthday, you can be prosecuted under County Code 12.04.050, forced to pay a $500 fine and serve six months in jail.
- [You] might consider buying a musket or flintlock rifle, which are exempted from the (72-hour waiting period) law.
- For example, we bet you didn't know that masseurs/masseuses can't wear transparent clothing. It's right there in the Clark County Code (7.08.045). Nope, no see-through duds.
- [S]econd-hand store owners have to make sure they never, ever accept any items from drunks or the criminally insane (7.16.090).
- [All teen] dance clubs countywide must have enough ambient indoor light to ensure these young'ns don't swing too deeply into some hardcore jungle boogie (8.40.080).
- Women in unincorporated parts of Clark County can't carry or possess mace, nunchuks, truncheons or other bludgeoning devices. Drug users living in these same areas can't possess or use stun guns, either (County Code 12.04.185).
- While using illegal drugs is risky enough, just snorting, smoking or injecting fake junk is enough to land you in the pokey for six months (County Code 12.07.030).
- For the past 33 years, name calling has been illegal in Clark County (12.33.010).
- Horsemen who want to smoke in forested areas of Clark County must dismount their trusty steed first before lighting up (13.16.010). Hikers in these same areas must stop moving forward before taking their first drag.
- Since 1965, shifting your car into neutral and coasting down county roads has been illegal (14.60.090).
- [I]f you're gonna drop a load in your buddy's bathroom, you'd better be sure to get permission first. Failure to do so is a misdemeanor (Las Vegas Municipal Code 10.40.040).
