Please do not encourage people to go shining bright lasers at small targets from long distances right next to busy roads.

This is a nerd fantasy thing, but it's a really bad idea. It's hard to hit a tiny lens from a distance and it only takes one slip of the hand to shine it straight into traffic or someone walking down the sidewalk.
