  1. Unbelievably ignorant reporting. Anyone who knows anything about lasers kows the further the distance the wider the beam, and the wider the beam the less intensity. Thus shining a hand held laser at something for any significant distance is harmless. Oh yes pilots like to whine and cry about being blinded, but its bs. Ask a scientist.

  2. Should go to jail.Thete was an incident in Hernando/Springhill the guy a manager at Vitamin Shoppe in Springhill pointed a laser at a Police Helicopter,and under the influence.Slap on the wrist.If you blind that Pilot,he crashes,then too late,then murder.Hes a moron anyway.

  3. The more politicians allow lawlessness to go unpunished the more creative the criminals get. This adult has a license and probably a job to be able to fuel that suv. That means there is a company somewhere in FL with standards so low they will employ someone like this. Hope its not a defense job or a place that requires background checks because they will need to update their policies. Maybe add an IQ test to the application process.

  4. Unbelievably ignorant. Unless you live under a rock, the word about not pointing lasers at aircraft has been extensively pushed out by the media. I hope he is prosecuted to the fullest extend of the law. And impound his car too.

  5. Maybe box planes shouldn't fly over peoples home all day every day while they are outside working and being spied on from up above. Just the same plane all day every day circling like Vultures above distracting people while they try to get their work done!!!
