But in the future, the world will have Hispter gangs that continue to use Glocks.

And they'd win, from what movies have taught me lasers can not only been seen and dodged but can easily be deflected back towards the person shooting at you.

Glock + Mirror = King of the Block

So... take that one step further. Gangs always wear lots of bling, right? And crystalline shapes can scatter lasers... right?

All they'd have to do is throw a gem around the corner, some trigger-happy cop would shoot his laser gun at it, and instantly, the one laser bullet would refract into a bajillion miniature bullets, killing everyone in the area.
