You could probably get around the harrasment issue if you don't do it more than once.

I would say so, if your intentionally doing that for no purpose it would probably be considered Harassment in most jurisdictions.

I live in Edmonton. A few years ago, some guy shone his laser pointer at Air 1 (police helicopter). They tracked him down and arrested him (can't remember what the charge was - maybe reckless endangerment). Sorry, but I don't know if he was ever convicted.

I am pretty sure that use of laser pointer is illegal and dangerous. If u point a laser, police can shoot u. I believe, its o.k during lecture.

Depends on where you live. It is indeed illegal in some places! Look for statutes such as "terroristic threats" and the like.

No, but it could be taken as harassment. You could possibly face charges...Not a good idea.

No, but it is stupid.
Someone , like me for instance, could assume that you are aiming a weapon, and would blow you away.

No specific law. But, it is dangerous.

...."get around the harrassment issue"?
WHY do it at all? It's dumb and juvenile.
