Blue laws are considered to be laws that are still on the books but are not in tune with the times so are usually overlooked. In the city of Cincinnati I remember when there was a law against retail sales on Sunday. This was enacted years ago but generally disregarded although it could be enforced if law enforcement agents wanted to. I don't know if this was overturned later or if everyone just agreed to ignore it.
Actually, the AS of the UPC is like a blue law. It is still on the books so it can be enforced if local enforcement agents decide to but it is generally just overlooked and ignored in real life in many areas. And like the blue laws that still remain on the books as civil laws that are usually not discussed because we are kind of ashamed of them, the AS is treated that way in some places.
