Alright, so I won't offer proof or anything but suffice it to say that I have pretty significant experience when it comes to things related to the Friendly Candy Company.

The FCC does not regulate LASER transmissions. FCC regulations stop at 300GHz. LASER is regulated in the US by the FDA.

I agree that the FCC will levy fines, beginning at $10,000, for interference with their regulated spectrum. The infrared used by LEO is above 300GHz in frequency. And as far as I know there is absolutely no federal regulation or law that speaks to interference fines being levied by the FDA.

The municipality is probably going to reference a lot more FCC regulations than any of us know - whether they be right or wrong - that will ruin your ability to get out and enjoy your car. It will cost you money, even if you win. You lose even if you win. I'm not saying I wouldn't use a jammer if I had one, I'm just saying don't be an idiot about it and get caught.

All laws are open to interpretation...that's not necessarily a good thing.
Absolutely incorrect view of how our justice system works. You're entitled to your opinion though. Your opinion is not congruent with the facts.

I'm really not trying to be a [expletive] about this, but it kills me when people make assumptions about how our very amazing system of law enforcement and jurisprudence works.

I have had fun with the system. Thanks! I exercise my rights when I feel the need justifies the means.

It is a seriously good thing laws are open to interpretation. I would not want to live in such a seriously backward world where there is only one way of thinking.
