Don Q User ID: 7165049 Canada 12/28/2011 05:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have a 2000mw green laser I got in Cambodia last year. I assure you it is DANGEROUS! It comes with a key so it won't go off by accident. I am in the laser business so I know. I have two forty watt Epilog lasers. My little hand held pointer will blind you instantly from miles away. I'm sure the kids had nothing more than 250mw. or they would have done permanant dammage. |

SHR Forum Administrator 12/28/2011 05:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes Lasers are dangerous you fucktards...like many other things are also dangerous. Lasers also have virtually unlimited range, which sets them apart from other such things like BB guns for instance which I'm sure most of you dumbfucks would have also hurt other people with if they had the range to. This is exactly why bullshit nanny state "safety" laws can and do get passed, because of ignorant dipshits that do cause harm to other people with thier own stupidness. Then they scratch thier dumb heads and bitch about being oppressed. A better solution would be to have a microwave beam weapon return fire to the laser source, burning the users hand off. Then all they'd have to say is something like, "Wuh....I was just like microwaving back dood, I did it like when I was a kid wuuuh..." One less retard fucking it up for the rest of us by sticking forks in toasters and doing other dumbshit things. ____________________________________________________ E-mail anytime [email protected] Inquiring about a ban?, include the IP address found here.

BRIEF User ID: 381742 United States 12/28/2011 05:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Looking for opinion here. Just read in the paper two people have been charged for shining a laser pointer at undercover cops. The cops were in a boat at night patrolling the river (the 'shiners' were on shore, so the distance was considerable). Apparently, the cops went to the hospital with "minor injuries", which of course I don't buy. These two now have a criminal record. Quoting: ian80 Now, I understand that lasers *can* cause eye damage, but these were consumer grade and the perps were at a distance. Could they not have just been told to smarten up? Instead of being charged with assault with a weapon? What bothers me most is that I feel charges never would have been laid had the 'victims' been civilians. Am I overreacting? This story makes me mad. I used to play with a laser pointer when I was younger; should I turn myself in? Cameras are legal too, but when you chase people around and harass them it's no wonder you get your shit tazed and your ass kicked...exercise some personal responsibility.

It's because no one there is dumb enough to point it at an airplane or cop. We lose our freedom to do dangerous things and wind up in a nany state. |

It's not even as bad as flashing someone with a high powered LED. You only think it hurts because of the flood of light entering your eyeball. This is why people need to pay attention more in school. |

They are very dangerous, there are ones now that are powerful enough to instantly blind or burn flesh in a second - and they are handheld too.

A few brief flashes in your eyes from a Office Depot laser pointer won't do anything. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 989564 We'r not talkin office depot lasers here. 2000 mw ...that is two thousand milli watt or two watts. Two watts will burn your retina out before you can blink. That's why it is a class 3b laser. This is my business... I know. www.plasticsmith.ca Look at the laser cutting and engraving. Don't point them in the air. All I can say is it is a good thing you can't buy them in North America. |

Or you could go to Thailand or Cambodia...have a great time .. then bring back a few 2 watt lasers... you will pay around $150 us. I think you could pay for your trip. |
