Recently we took a look at some of the more unique laws in our great state of Idaho.  You never know what laws are and aren't on the books.  Could you be breaking an unknown law?

We didn't know we were doing anything wrong, and it wasn't what I would call a "big deal" but that doesn't change that it was, in fact, illegal. IHere in the Gem State, ignorance is not bliss when it comes to the law of the land.
