Why did the chicken cross the road?
Doesn’t matter why it crossed the road. The law doesn’t concern itself with reasons. Just as long as the chicken will recieve a fine for crossing the road, all is well.
Luckily, after some delibration a judge threw away the fine.
Not because it’s bloody silly, mind you, but because the judge was convinced that this specific chicken was domesticated, and not just livestock. If it was livestock, the 54$ fine would have stood. At these rates, I think letting a chicken cross the road probably costs a whole of a lot more than a whole chicken.
Maybe a better answer to the Why did the chicken cross the road? question would be because it chose to exercise its legal road-crossing right…
