A recently passed anticrime law requires criminals to give their victims 24 hours notice, either orally or in writing, and to explain the nature of the crime to be committed
LOL
reminded me of Discworld

Countries using the common law system tend to have some weird laws, as they are based on court decisions. Luckily in Finland and other civil law countries the judges interpret the laws, rather than create them. :)

No, this isn't true. In the late '60s there was some discussion whether it was appropriate to present a pantless character for children, though. And it was about Donald Duck, not Daffy.

As we know, the late '60s was the time of sexual liberation, and those opposing this trend occasionally went too far in their demands. This was a prime example.

EDIT: Ah, it was in 1977, not in the '60s. Anyhow, here's more info on the matter: http://www.snopes.com/disney/films/finland.htm
