I know how unpopular I'm going to be for saying this....
But I do not believe lasers should be as unregulated as they are (in Canada at least)
At the very least, we need some sort of age controls. The thought of a 15 year old buying a 1W blue laser and playing with it out in public, is sort of terrifying. Yes, criminal law can deal with any problems that arise under provisions for assault, etc. But we're talking about the potential to blind someone. If a slingshot is a weapon, a 1W arctic is a weapon too.
