Police to get Lazer Dazer

[Adios]

One of the newest and most unusual less-than-lethal weapons to hit the market is the "Dazer Laser." It's a powerful laser gun that can temporarily blind and disorient a suspect with a large modulating pool of green light.

"If you can impair their vision where they can't effectively target or locate you, you're controlling them, you have those couple seconds you need, which in law enforcement is a year," said Ryan Battis, who demonstrates the weapons to police departments for Laser Energetics, Inc. of New Jersey.

The promoters claim the lasers are effective day or night, and are designed to be effective anywhere from 3 feet to a mile-and-a-half away from a suspect - without causing eye damage.

This will end well.

<Fred>: do they work if you wear mirrored sunglasses
<Hawk>: methinks you may be an evil person

[Rumckle]

Finally an excuse to wear sunglasses at night.

Strictly for recreational purposes of course.

Yet, they mention nothing about cancer.

I am sure that these new weapons tools will be used with the same restraint as Tasers have been.

[Rumckle]

Just wait till they start using on people who are driving 

[Jasper]

Seriously

Okay partner, the riot is about  a mile and a half away.  This is the perfect time to use our space man weapons on them. 

Okay, nobody mention we caused that car crash.

I imagine the mile and a half range would work in say, Kansas.  What about the rest of the country that has hills and shit?

Helicopters.

[Doktor Howl]

So how accurate and safe is a bloody flash of light going to be from a mile and a half away?

So, you love criminals, do you?

[Jenne]

It's info like this that makes me hate people.  I mean REALLY hate people.  Sigh.

Jenne,

Hates People But Loves Criminals (well, ONE of them, anyway)

[Jasper]

Never met a criminal I didn't like.

[Eater of Clowns]

Never met a criminal I didn't like.

Try working at a jail.
