Yes. Sorry. I only have 1 or 2 days a year where I can legally blow stuff up.
So do it at 10pm or something a little more reasonable.
For July 4, yeah. But doing it at midnight on New Years is important to a lot of people.
OK. Midnight on New Years is fine too. Let's just not do it at 2am at any time of the year.
Also CNY!
Welp, depends on where you live. When I was growing up in New England it was illegal to set off fireworks if you weren't a licensed pro. Illegal to buy/own them too AFAIK. Here in WA you can buy them on NA reservations but AFAIK it's still illegal to set them off. But of course, the yahoos do it anyway and it seems to get worse and worse every year - more, bigger, louder, and for days on end. And all this while the climate gets drier and drier and more fire-prone.
