I don't think a bystander can actually see red beams -- any more than they can see blue "cold air" when he blows it. Tightly focused beams of light are not generally visible en route, unless the air is very dusty/dirty. For example, a laser cannot be seen along its path -- only when it hits something, or passes through something translucent.
Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.
