I can only speak for myself, but I do think fireworks should be much more regulated. Each year 10,000 people get hurt from fireworks in the US alone, and it’s pretty horrible for the environment. I do appreciate the cultural importance, so I don’t think completely banning them is the solution, but I think it would be much better if there were just a few organized firework shows, and no more fireworks for private use.
That makes a ton of sense. I’m in Canada, where they are regulated. You really only ever see fireworks at organized events put on by towns/cities, and they are always awesome. One of my favourite things to watch as a kid.
I only know about Canadian fireworks regulations because of Letterkenny. But it definitely seems like there’s a lot more sensibility around their handling there, which I appreciate as an American who has to deal with inbred assholes celebrating their nation by blowing up a small part of it.

I didn’t know there are places with regulations like that, that’s cool :)
