My mastiff and a temporary cat loved chasing that little red laser dot.

I disbelieve the stories of danger from people pointing lasers at airliners. If it is such a problem, why spend so much money on fighter planes for our military? Just arm them with laser pointers and blind the pilots of our enemies. I know, I know, the next poster will tell me that fighter jockeys have special equipment to protect themselves from laser pointers. To that I would say see. Give the special equipment to airline pilots.

Firing a laser endangers every one on the plane if the pilots are incapacitated. Five years is too short of a time. Let’s try ten and no parole.

Isn’t there some type of glasses they could wear? Mirrors on the outside? Just asking.

Live televised bloody floggings might be more of a deterrent. The hard part is catching one of these miscreants. OK, let's invent an automated counterbattery laser. Any laser that triggers it is hit in return within fractions of a second.
