What's Tactical strobe good for?

I think the vast majority of people will scoff at this idea because yes, it seems ludicrous and the scenario is 1 in a few hundred thousand…but let me suggest it. I have paid keen attention with all the rat scum terrorist attackers in the US the last couple years. Las Vegas concert got me thinking about how a rat scum can try to open fire on people anywhere from 10 to hundreds of feet away. If a nearby stander was 1) outside the range to engage, or 2) in a location they didn’t have firearm…what if they strobed the scum of a bitch with 500,000 candela? Now they could be 300 feet away, and if ANYTHING, at least reduce the attackers thought processing/ability to acquire “other” targets. Of course 2 major problems exist…one being it would have to be in lower light conditions and two being the source of the momentary strobe can become a target. Call me crazy, I know, don’t laugh…but I have thought of this scenario.

Think I’d prefer a 1200mW violet laser aimed right at the SOB.

Very high lux at just about any distance…
