“But traditionally, without fireworks there is no 4th of July.”
Yes, but for me it isn’t the municipal aerial displays, it’s the bottle rockets, Roman candles, and cherry bombs. 21 gun salutes by veterans and maybe a line of reenactors with muskets can help. The aerial displays are a waste of money.
Exactly. Anyone so-called patriot who can’t celebrate our independence on the 4th just because there are no aerial fireworks is pretty weak sauce. If they outlawed Christmas trees and Nativity sets, you can bet I’d still celebrate Christmas.
