Stupid Nevada Laws Up until February 2007, it was against the law to speak any language other than English in the town of Pahrump outside of Las Vegas. In Nyalaa man is forbidden from buying drinks for more than three people other than himself at any one period during the day. It is still "legal" to hang someone for shooting your dog on your property. In Eurekamen who wear moustaches are forbidden from kissing women. In Elko everyone walking the streets is required to wear a mask. It is illegal to drive a camel on the highway.
