Nah the dude is in the US. Im gettin the impression that Australia is rly strict with all kinds of stuff. In the US, even tho theres a bunch of idiots pointing lasers up into the sky at aircraft, there's no law outright banning the possession of a laser. They'll come lock a fool up if he point that at a plane, but....
Im curious, do they even sell small laser pointers in Australia or no?
In the US they're in every dollar store, or almost every dollar store. Weak ones, yeah. But they're there. Alotta people in the US play amateur scientist filming stuff with lasers and magnetrons and melting metal and whatnot. Laws are reasonable there at least.
