Laws that make no sense

Midwifery bill faces resistance in Missouri Senate:
"Under current law, it's a felony for someone to offer services as a midwife, even though it's legal for an untrained person to oversee a home birth.

'Anyone can catch a baby in this state,' said Debbie Smithey, president of the Missouri Midwives Association. But when a person is trained in midwifery, 'that's when it becomes a felony.'"
