    Naw, they used lasers on cops/feds for 200+ days in Portland. No one got shot, but I think some protesters were charged for "permanently blinding" some fed.

      don't know about the us, but you can get in fairly massive legal trouble for doing this in germany, too. especially if you point the thing at a police helicopter.

        tbf you 100% shouldn't do that unless it's a full on insurrection or you REALLY need to protect someone for some reason.

          absolutely. doing an adventurist prank on a police chopper is not worth spending several years in a federal prison.

          oooh but imagine a bunch of protesters taking down a police chopper tho... :sicko-yes:

          of course martial law would probably come the next day but damn that would be awesome
