You would think that the age of discrimination was at an end. Unfortunately, this video obviously proves that wrong. This video is disgusting, vile, and offensive to insect lovers everywhere.
Just kidding. Actually the video below is of a mosquito getting show down by the laser. Yes, a frickin' laser. Apparently one of the devices shown off at the 2010 TED Conference where awesome TED Talks happen is a laser that can track and shoot down mosquitos with the hopes of keeping mosquito populations under control to reduce the number of deaths due to malaria. That's awesome. But really, if this was a video of a cute little dog getting shot down by a laser everyone would be freaking out. Just putting that out there.

EDIT: Some more on the mosquito hunting laser
P.S. Also, since Malcolm Gladwell's TED Talk (linked above) is just so cool, I'm just gonna embed it down here too for your viewing pleasure.
