$50,000 could purchase 150 of these babies from most any gun store by any US citizen with a clean record.

What do we think would cause more injures. Remember the DC sniper?Buying one $50,000 machine is not a very efficient way of causing mass terror.

The $50,000 number is not correct. Lasers with enough power to set paper on fire (in the IR spectrum which is invisible to the human eye) are available on ebay for under $200. Search on "laser diodes". They can be powered with a D cell.
