I cannot believe sparklers will land you jail. Unbelievable. I am glad I don't live in the People's Republic of Maryland.

From the same state that wanted to ban all firearms, even BB guns.

"The sparkler is not at all innocuous. It is very dangerous. It gets very hot, it can cause serious injury."

trade in your fireworks and receive Six Flags coupons.

Find out where you can claim your coupons, launch your fireworks in that direction and go claim your coupons.

Get some of your tax money back. Quite nice of them actually.

We have a long list of legal fireworks in Pocatello. There is a short list of illegal fireworks that are sold at the adjacent indian reservation. The illegal stuff includes artillery shells, bottle rockets and roman candles. The kind of stuff that flies out of control and sets the wood shake shingles of a house on fire.

The local gang bangers have also discovered that a large enough bundle of "harmless" sparklers can be detonated in a metal trash can to produce a fair amount of shrapnel. We're really screwed once they embrace Islam.

Sparklers have been outlawed in Arizona for years. But, with the state being a tinderbox, it's a little more understandable.

12,000 fireworks were turned in to fire investigators.

What exactly is "a firwork"? I have a bundle of 5K Blckcats intended for this Tuesday. Is that considered 5000 "fireworks"?
