Dictionary.com
defines a laser as a device that produces a “…coherent beam of light [caused]
by exciting atoms to a higher energy level and causing them to radiate their
energy in phase”. So basically lasers are just beams of light created by some
science-y means. Most of them aren’t weapons or even that harmful so long as
kept away from the eyes. That dinky little laser pointer manufactured purely to
annoy your pets counts as a laser. And of course they are often fairly small
and thin, because a huge, wide laser would probably be ridiculously
impractical, not to mention pointless. Lasers aren’t really weapons, there, now
that’s out of the way. So that being said…fuck
that shit!
Erm, not literally
though. That probably wouldn’t end well, even if the laser itself wasn’t
harmful.
