Quite right. They are a mere trifle. Just kids having fun.
Seriously? Many of us have been 'hit' by these menaces. About two weeks ago for me. A really unpleasnnt crosswind landing at EM was not helped by geting l@sered just exactly when it was least needed. That's about the fourth time in a year or so, and that's four times too many. At present, they're a nuisance. Just wait until someone on finals with an issue gets hit. A serious distraction at that stage, involving temporary vision loss, could make all the difference. No malice or harm intended? What bl**dy planet are you on, because it certainly isn't one wheer your at the pointy end.
