Hi guys.. this is my first post

Well, you know how it is.. you have a few too many glasses of wine and suddenly the idea of shining the laser out of your 6th floor apartment window seems like a good idea. Not so! About 15 mins after I decided to illuminate the neighbouring buildings with my 110mw pgl-iii from WickedLasers.com the cops showed up at my door! I don't know how they knew it was me!! Anyway, they asked to see the thing.. but as are cops in Japan, they were very nice and polite and were really impressed by my new 'pointer'. They told me that it's dangerous and that I must be careful..

God.. I was so worried they'd confiscate it.. but they didn't.. god bless them.

Guess I better be careful in future!!!

It's hard to resist.. it's just so foggy at the moment.. shining it out across the city looks just so awesome..

Anyone else with police stories?

I would appear that it is not against the law to do that in Japan

I know the local cops personally... i been up to the station before asking about the laws pertaining to lasers, they know I have class 3b lasers and they dont care where i shine it as long as its not at people, vehicles, aircraft... or as long as I dont do anything maliscious with it

You're very lucky it wasn't confiscated.

my friend just flew back to Japan a few days ago to marry a Japanese girl, man her parents hate him.
