Why is flirting illegal in New York City and Little Rock Arizona?

Both places have antiquated laws against flirting. There are silly and just plain weird laws on the books that nobody follows or even knows about in every city, state and country on Earth.

See the Related Links below. For example, in New York, it is also illegal to urinate on a pigeon, or to walk backwards while eating chestnuts.

New York specifically has a law against "flirting," while Little Rock's law prohibits "playful banter."

What are the purposes served by land use controls?

Land use controls restrict the use, activity and access to land. The following are some examples:


  • The most common form is zoning controlled by local governments that controls development within city and town borders. Zoning prevents such activities as the storage of junk cars or the establishment of a noxious business in a residential neighborhood. Regulations may restrict your neighborhood to single family homes or allow multiple family dwellings. Zoning creates commercial districts.
  • Conservation restrictions can protect large tracts of land such as farmland from development and dedicate such land for passive recreational use by the public.
  • Developers can impose covenants and restrictions on new subdivisions intended to protect property values and maintain the integrity of the community. However, they can expire by law after a number of years (30 years in Massachusetts, for example).
  • Landowners who grant easements to utility companies for the purpose of erecting power lines may voluntarily restrict certain portions of their land from being built on or planted.

Why do stores say you cannot shop barefoot?

Stores are allowed to make and enforce their own policies within reason. Although not generally required by any health codes the reason often given for requiring footwear is liability in case of injury. That may or may not be true but footwear, even flip flops, does protect your feet from being injured. Requiring footwear may also be part of an effort to maintain some level of dignity in the establishment. Barefoot shoppers with dirty feet may drive other customers away. Most stores in beach areas allow barefoot shopping.

Did the Peekskill riots happen near the Hollowbrook Drive in theater?

It seems the Lakeland Picnic Grounds (the site of the first riot) later became the drive-in( off Jay Road),although Howard Fast refers to the site being off Division Road,whice is the SW extension of Oregon Road. He also says the second site was half a mile further up the road at the disused Hollowbrook Country Club,which I believe is not the same site as the current Golf Club.

There are also contemporary references to the cemeteries being close to the entrance of the country club ,which does not tally.

It is odd that that there is so much confusion over the topography of such a recent event.
