Into authoritarianism, you say? Next time you pass through Virginia, be mindful of these laws, all still technically in force:
Not only is it illegal to have sex with the lights on, one may not have sex in any position other than missionary.
There is a state law prohibiting "corrupt practices of bribery by any person other than candidates."
It is illegal to spit on sidewalk.
If one is not married, it is illegal for him to have sexual relations.
You may not have oral or anal sex.
Police radar detectors are illegal.
Citizens must honk their horn while passing other cars.
Children are not to go trick-or-treating on Halloween.
It is illegal to tickle women.
Be sure to honk as you go whizzing through the speed trap -- I'm sure the judge will understand your position.
