I believe we have a good case to make that we have a lawful purpose for owning and using laser pointers.
Can we set up an online petition to present to the appropriate minister pre-emptivly.
It would be helpful to propose a solution to the issue of hoon's with laser pointers, trying to "Zap" aircraft.
Public education on the dangers, proper use of lazers, etc ....
Any Ideas how we can do this ?
I am happy to write the petition letter.

I'd second that Ian: how about it Mike? I also think that anyone motivated enough to do this should also at least email there local State and Federal member: the wording for any IIS formulated petition could be utilized for these individual emails too!
