Go to a public show if you want to watch them. Lighting your 10 buck crap is so disruptive and is upsetting my dog.

I don't mind fireworks as long as

1) it's the 4th of July
2) we just won a war
3) our team won the World Series

Only when people are asshats. Definition of asshat (in this context) is if they fit one or more of the following:

  • They don't clean up their mess
  • They use illegal fireworks
  • They go past the legal time frame


And while not technically illegal, I absolutely hate those super loudass string of red fireworks that people light off at midnight. They're not even nice to look at; they're just loud for the sake of loudness <_<

It's loud and triggering for people with mental health issues. It's triggering for animals, both pets and wildlife who are just trying to mind their own business. It's dangerous. Thousands of people are injured every year because of them and tens of millions of dollars in property damage.

It's peak selfish asshole behavior and there's no good reason for it.

Fireworks can bring people together and they happen maybe twice a year, so the event feels special. This is one way how you build communities with positive feelings towards each other. I see people doing practically everything they can to isolate themselves and some are offended that anyone would want to talk or even look at each other, then get upset when no one wants to help during a crisis. Have neighborhoods bond over events like New Years celebrations and youll notice an improvement overall.

Fireworks just makes me want to avoid my neighbours more. Someone's def going to the ER on the 4th of July for explody reasons and I sure hope it ain't me.

To be honest, I think its mad that members if the public are allowed to buy fireworks. They should be tightly regulated and only sold to licensed professionals.

Ah, there we go. 4:30 pm and I felt the first illegal firework. Yes, the ones that are so loud that you can literally feel the vibration from them. Fuck the people who set that shit off

Even if you agree with this, you can do the same thing without the overly loud dangerous ones.

You talking about fireworks that fly up in the air and explode? Or fireworks you buy at the grocery store that sit on the edge of your driveway and shoot sparks?

Can't say I've had enough experience to judge. Around here, everyone just goes to the big public shows. I don't think I've ever seen anyone in the neighborhood light up anything more than basic sparklers.
