Logically, by peacegirl's reasoning, this must be the case.

Not at all. |
Really? What if the reason the laser shut off is because it was destroyed?
You keep claiming that light cannot exist independently of its source. So shutting off the laser emitter -- by whatever means -- means that the light the laser had been emitting should immediately cease to exist.
And this is indeed an experiment that has been done many, many times. |
She's been caught out in yet another contradiction -- she has very clearly stated that when an object ceases to exist, the light it emits or reflected ceases to exist also -- which is utter bilge, of course, but that is what she said. Now, when confronted wtih that same scenario, about light ceasing to exist when its source goes out, she says, "not at all!"
