The Maryland House of Delegates passed a bill Monday that would criminalize what delegates call a "dangerous trend" that has seen people targeting aircraft with cheap laser pointers, which can briefly blind and temporarily disorient pilots.
The measure, which is sponsored by Del. Sam Arora of Montgomery County, now moves to the state Senate.
"Laser pointers, especially the green ones, are surprisingly powerful and also cheap," Arora said in a statement. "We are working to protect our first responders and make air travel safer with this bill."

Ridiculous, Absolutely Ridiculous!
How about they pass a law that no more laws can be passed for a year.
They are passing laws that will be needed to keep us in line. They know what is coming and they know how we are going to react. They are getting ready.
So a child( about 6 years old) has a laser pointer and is going on vacation with his family and doesn't know what the laser pointer is and clicks it and shine it around interested in it he would go to prison this must be one of those unreasonable laws.
