Are Holidays Still Holidays Without Fireworks?
Are holidays still holidays without fireworks? Is there a reason that we have had them outlawed for personal use? I have personally seen a rocket shot through a ladies cheek to have a scar remain there forever. So not just going through the pain of being shot and healing, you are left with a scar. This was a bottle rocket shot by her son. Is this really what you want to happen to someone you love and care for. Using them to make a stir is not enough reason to have the fireworks used...
