Why Children shouldn't be allowed to own a laser

your doubting me? Go ahead and survey the whole forum, and find out for yourself, just because your older, doesnt nessasarally mean everyone is just as old as you or older. It may not be a 100% fact, it could be a little more, or a little less, but I'm confident it's in that range.


my point exactly, i am a member here and YOU never polled me. i don't have my age posted so how can you come up with your numbers?
and George Bush tried to tell us he was confident that WMD's were in Iraq. you clearly state that you don't know.:whistle:

so maybe the title shouldn't read "no minors with lasers" it should read "don't let know it alls handle lasers":crackup::crackup:

Here here!

High 5 for being a fellow tricky kid!
Although tbh, my parents have never been all that strict so maybe i lose tricky kid points for that. My decision about rules myself is that i follow them as long as i see a good logical reason as to why i should follow them. As soon as the parents can't give me a reason i don't comply.


That never changes, even when you get older, there is always some rules or laws or regulations you are supposed to follow. Its all crap IMO, you have to use you best judgement to decide what to do and not to do, and you learn this when you are young and have parents over you.
Its all about education IMO, if you know and are aware of things and various dangers, and mainly common sense your okay. For instance, if you give some one on the street a cool sword to look at, the majority wouldnt run up to someone and stab them in the eye, because they know swords and knives are dangerous, can hurt, cut, and kill you. This applies to lasers as well, but the majority in this case is uneducated in the matter, and doesnt really know better, if the gov't would spend some money to educate the populace on safe laser usage, especially since the are so widespread nowadays, instead of just issuing a blanket ban, then people would be better off.

EDIT: And it seems there are alot of youngsters around here, but I belive thats because lasers are so fascinating and would appeal to kids, but the differance is, that the older people here are hobbyists and hardcore collectors, in a few years when the younger crowd grows up, the majority of them will not be interested in lasers as much as before, if at all.

look around each and every thread... you'll figure out hopefully
 
Yes, I'm 15 and most of us on this forum are treating it like a toy, because the idea of pooping a balloon? In honesty do you see adults popping balloon for fun? Also lighting matches only for amusement? These questions would tough to reply to for any adult that owns lasers.

Was everyone else to caught up with the seriousness of this conversation to catch this hilarious typo, or just to afraid to be ridiculed since this thread is about immaturity, and lasers??? Gotta love the irony.:crackup:

haha, thank god people aren't immature enough to point at aircrafts. :crackup:
 
85% of people find that pooping balloons is hilarious and should not be attempted by children

:crackup:
 
Never try to pop a pooped ballon --That can be painful--also I read that 84.7 pecent of all statistics are made up on the spot.
 
Man, pooping balloons, thats gotta suck.

EDIT: from this and alot of other threads around, Ive come to the conclusion, that souljasai likes to argue with people, anybody really, for what seems to be almost any reason :whistle:
 
pooping balloons is only painful if it's inflated LoL!!!!


i'll leave my name off of this one
 
Lol i noticed the typo, didn't think anyone else would find it comedic though.

"Comedic" is my word for funny. IMO it sounds funnier.
 
I just ordered a 50mw greenie from LEDShoppe. I'm 14. :) Sucks waiting though. It may take up to a month :(
 
Actually I'm pretty sure those Ledshop lasers are known to be up to, or over spec.
 
Really? how do you know that they're all putting out "40mw"?
I've seen atleast 5 members here say theirs is overspec, and the only bad thing I've seen about one is some noob pot modded his, and it died. I've also seen one outputting over 70mw, and one at almost 100mw... Why do you assume they're all 40mw? A few might be underspec, but I think the majority are actually at, or above 50mw.
