Even if you doubt it is true, the “evidence” of seeing people violating the law does not make it false! I see people speeding, does that mean it’s no longer illegal to speed in Washington?

Why is everyone saying this law is fake? It just isn’t enforced anymore. Laws take time and money to remove, so sometimes it is just easier to stop enforcing them. However, the law is still technically in place.

That’s definitely not true. My dads a policeman in Seattle and I’ve definitely ate plenty of lollipops on front of him and he never told me not to.

Guys, honestly. If you live in Washington you know they’re lollipops, but we call them suckers. Wanna know why? Lollipops are against the law, but give them another name….

Obviously the law is not true. They couldn’t sell them in stores if they were ‘illegal’. I work at walmart, and some suckers ring up as “lollipop” on the register. We wouldn’t sell them if it was illegal

U guys seriously gotta stop arguing about these laws not being real!!!!!! Most of these laws are either old laws that don’t exist anymore or not enforced anymore!!!!!! Don’t get how this would be a law though. To much fat kids there?

There is no RCW entry about this. If you feel that it is a real law (it’s not), feel free to peruse the RCW database available freely online at apps.leg.wa.gov/RCW/. You won’t find it though. It’s not real.

Dudes, let me just get this straight. This was a REAL law in the early 1900′s, because my grandfather was a policeman there, and he said it was true. His best friend had to arrest someone because they were trying to protest by eating a lollipop in front of the police station. I guess he didn’t take it seriously, but it’s not a law today. It was only alive for a few years. Does that answer you’re questions? Because my grandfather is not a lier.

It *is* still on the books, but everybody ignores it. I remember discussing it with a criminal law professor. There are a lot of laws on the books in a lot of states (one on the east coast that makes the installation of a bath tub illegal) and nobody enforces them. Everybody ignores it because it’s no longer relevant. Joe Bob’s right.

The law was mostl likely created in the 1920′s meaning that it would seem too inappropriate to eat in public. Imagine being a man who rarely sees a woman in anything but a long skirt watching a woman eat a sucker. They would only assume that she was a prostatute and come on to her. Is it inforced no is it worth doing the paper work to get rid of it. No.

Of course Lollipops have been banned, they are used in place of $$ to bribe kidds into doing good deeds.

I’m still in middle school in washington, and we have a police officer here who talked to us about alcohol, and at the end he gave lollipops to all who wanted one. Everyone also eats them. This is such a lie. All of the candy stores sell them openly too.
