I am from the UK.

I was wondering what type of laws will be different over in America (kentucky - where we'd be moving to).

Apart from 21 year old lega limit to drink - sucks <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Only if no one tells the cops. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Oh, and be ready for weird English speaking in Kentucky. It's.. odd. Move to New England, the only thing we do is not pronounce R's.

    America is a bit weird about crime. Sure it's illegal to do stuff. But until you do something that involves a victim then usually nobody really cares.

    At least where I'm at.

    America is a little more strict than the UK.....so just don't drink unless your 21 and don't do weed. Oh yeah, don't be racist either! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Gun laws are either Harsher or much more lax depending upon which state you go to.

    Kalifornia may or may not have already outlawed toy guns.

    Of course, if your moving to Kentucky, that rule doesn't apply to everyone.....

    Weed is bad in the eyes of the law, mmkay.....

    Yes, get a few guns, take a safety course or two, and see why americans want to keep them so much <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->


    Otherwise, it's not too much different.. Just don't go telling asking people to change a pound into pence and get ready for the Standard measurement system...

    Youre not allowed to do that in the UK anyhow. Its still a Classed drug, and can get you two years in prison for possession. A conviction for any Misuse of Drugs Act offence can affect future employment. Many other countries may refuse visas to people with drug convictions. Misuse will often invaildate insurance policies, including holiday, vehicle and health cover.

    Only if you live with cops...there's really no risk. Just don't get caught growing the stuff.

    You can own pretty much any firearm you want, you can smoke marijuana, but not like it's legal. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    In America, we have our own forms of extremists.

    The middle east has Osama bin Laden.

    The US has the KKK, Christian Identity, and Iahoveh's witnesses.

    Actually.. I respect Iahevoh's witnesses, they're a very polite bunch, I wouldn't mine listening to them if they didn't come at 6 in the morning.

    I think it'd be a lot worse to find the KKK at your door than some J's Witnesses.
