I'm curious how people feel about fireworks, I know us in the USA have been dealing with them for probably a week now It's my first time living in town and seeing how bad the fireworks are here. People have been arguing to ban them, etc. So I wanted to open up a discussion about it
Few things people broke up locally was people setting off mortars and artillery shells. Yup idk if this is normal in other states but it's huge here, makes it sound like a war zone. Personally I think these should be banned as I don't see the point? And someone pointed out how bad these in particular must be for veterans with ptsd
Aerial fireworks, I personally find this pretty and fun BUT the lack of safety when using them is getting concerned. Locally we've had a person trampoline burned by someone else's firework landing on it and a woman's house catching on fire for the same reason, her dog died in the fire. And countless other fires. I love fireworks but it's really becoming a matter of are we even smart enough in general to use them?
And last complaint people have is how long fireworks go. Here they start 3 days early and end 3 days after the 4th. I personally don't mind them going for a few days but I hate how they go til 4am on weeknights, as alot of us work early and it's a killer being kept up
So what's your opinions on the fireworks and how did things go in your area for the 4th? Any fires, etc
