    Actually it is law, it just isn’t generally enforced since it’s federal and not state/local law.

    The United States Code is a consolidation and codification by subject matter of the general and permanent laws of the United States. It is prepared by the Office of the Law Revision Counsel of the United States House of Representatives.

      Hmm, that’s really interesting.

      I wonder if there is actually any precedent at all for this being enforced?
