Illegal Fireworks Making LA Look Like an Insane Fantavision Level

When you teach people that the police have no power, the lesson they learn is that the police have no power.

And I can't believe this is shocking to them, but when people think there are no consequences for actions, they don't commit less crimes.
 
Its going off in NYC and Boston. Probably a whole bunch of other places too.

I think this is a big FU since something like 80% of cities canceled July 4th.
 
Any reason to why they are illegal? I've seen these kind of fireworks on New Year's Eve my whole life.

The nanny state cites "safety" reasons. Meanwhile in my entire neighborhood growing up when fireworks were legal in NYC, every year was like a war zone with fireworks, and out of hundreds of kids/adults using them each year for like 17 years I was alive before they were banned in NYC, I knew of only TWO people who had serious accidents with them. Again, hundreds of users of all ages over a 17 year span, 2 serious accidents (lost finger and lost vision in one eye).

Yeah, in NYC that's seems to be bs.
 
How many fires were started? How many injuries? My neighborhood, where fireworks are legal, saw far more fireworks use than usual this year.

I think people are sick of the nanny state and recent political....topics, have spurred people to ignore the law.

Americans love their freedom 🤷‍♂️

Even if this is a one off and next year things return to normal? It was pretty cool seeing (even if it's my imagination) some acts of patriotism around the country.

Do you mean that what I said is BS, or that the whole "safety" rationale for making fireworks illegal is BS?

The safety rationale. I can understand it being illegal in CA, given the droughts and fires, but I don't see why it would be illegal in NYC, unless the buildings are somehow easily flamable.

California is full of stupid laws, it's nice to see everyone in California decide at least for one day that stupid laws are in fact stupid.
 
XiNN and MSDNC will tell you how to think.

Right Wing defy law and illegally glorify white supremacy in terrorist attack.

Or

Peaceful protesters inovate the fight against racism with peaceful legal sparklers.

I live in a condo and right outside on the street they had been going at it since earlier this afternoon right into around 11pm. I'm fine with even if the whole area sounds and smells like a war zone since it's fun and only once a year. and as long as they're careful and don't keep going at it after 11pm or something, I'm totally cool with it.
 
I was bummed that this would be the first year with no firework show, but the entire city giving the government the middle finger was even better.
 
Funny to see the blue checkmarks falling over themselves to remind people that this is ILLEGAL. Suddenly, the rule of law is important again because they don't like thing.
 
My entire neighborhood (not Cali) was lit up with fireworks all night. It wasn't the usual Roman candles and bottle rockets, they were lighting those big canister shells. One of the most surreal July 4ths I've ever experienced. Standing in my driveway half dressed, eating a slice of pie with fireworks going off all around me. The only thing missing was a Bald Eagle swooping through the fucking sky.
 
yea i knew that no one here was going to listen to this shit. Ive lived here for a long time now... theres a lot of patriotic latino communities in LA.....try telling them to not set off fire works on the 4th.

Get fucked Newsom
