While I 100% agree, shooting a laser powerful enough to burn camera sensors sounds like something dangerous enough that I'd be worried of a reflection blinding someone
High-power lasers are dangerous and you certainly should not operate them if you don't know what you're doing, but they are not in the same ballpark as bullets from guns. And if we're talking strictly about legal jeopardy, IDK I'm not a lawyer but I imagine a prosecutor would have a hard time convincing a jury that a laser is as dangerous as a gun. Not saying it couldn't happen, but if I had to go to trial with one or the other I know what my preference would be.
“Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I’d like to present you with evidence of why a laser is, in fact, more dangerous than a gun. Please turn your attention to the screen:”
A laser won't kill me if it hits my stomach. A bullet very much might.
On the other hand, a bullet won't blind a dozen people if it hits a reflective surface. A laser might.
