Let Stupid Laws Die

TALLAHASSEE Florida law requires sheriffs to live within two miles of the county seat — close enough to get there quickly by horse.
The rule is long since obsolete, but like scores of other old laws sometimes dating back a century or more, it remains on the books.
Not for much longer.

Florida's legislators are taking an eraser to state law, scrubbing out rules that stick out worse than a Walkman in an iPod world.

A good read, and who rides a horse to work anymore. I hope other states will do this and get rid of those blue laws still on the books, if your not gonna enforce them, why have them.
