A judge says North Carolina's 201-year-old law barring unmarried couples from living together is unconstitutional.

And he has just discovered it! For 201 years North Carolina must have had stupid judges.

(I hope he is referring to the North Carolina Constitution, because it's pretty tough to find anything about this in the Federal Constitution.)

Maybe it wasn't enforced during this time. A lot of laws, including Georgia's former sodomy law, were only observed in the breech.
