It's like living in a warzone!!

Bloody hell, you can tell it's not far away from November 5th!! It's like living in a bleedin' warzone here right now!

STOP SELLIN' FIREWORKS TO KIDS! (don't quite know who that was aimed at there)

If one more air-bomb or rapid-fire-thirty-fireworks-in-one-go box goes off outside I swear I'm gonna have a heart-attack!

Yeah i've experienced that before and its not fun at all, theres nothing you can do though so just retort with the biggest you can buy at 4am.

I think that's what's already happened. From the sound, direction and trajectory I'd say there were already at least 3 warring factions laying down suppressing fire whilst calling in the heavy artillery

Dude, fireworks are funny.

hehehehehe

Well you could buy some industrial sized fireworks from specialist mail order companies, which we did last year and set off every car alarm within 250 meters.

Just pretend you work for a display team and need a sample order, they may even knock the price down for you.

Send those up at 4am and you'll wake everyone for at least 2 miles

Don't put ideas in my head!

You guys #ing crack me up

Firecrackers have been banned here, and I think that that is a real shame for kids. They miss out on the fun of blowing cans 20ft in the air, or making cracker guns with bent pipe, all because the odd stupid kid loses an eye or limb every year.
Its a darwinian thing, it needs to be encouraged weeding out the stupid. The nanny state takes all the fun out of life.

Don't get me wrong NC, I seem to vaguely remember some friends and I taped cardboard tubes to our bikes and used them to launch rockets at each other in a mad game of pursuit. It was fun at the time

Urgh.....suddenly I feel old

Yeha. I mean, a bicycle can be dangerous too. But they won't take bicycles away from kid? Why forbid fireworks?

Agree with NetChicken on that, those kids will miss an important part of youthness fun. It's better to sell them safe and ready to use fireworks then let 'em try to make bombs using info from internet, isn't it?

If you're in Glasgow around November 5th stay away from the schemes! All the troublesome young youths go to their local play park, dig in and shoot fire works at each other all night. Now that's a warzone...

NC, I agree, blowing things up is an inportant part of growing up and becoming a young man. It teaches you a lot.

I wholeheartedly agree with you, this society needs to level off a couple of culture classes.

Firecrackers the size of 2000lb bombs are fun though

Hehehehe Fireworks who needs them.... Just make the real thing Thats what i do

It'sbetter than being in those refugee camps where the kids roll landmines down hills...

fireworks in november? where do you live at?

...banning fireworks is madness...its every kids right to experience the joys of blowing up their Maths Teachers mail-box, terrorising the grumpy old lady across the road, and getting even with that bully by all ambushing him with bottle-rockets...

THere is a ban on fireworks on my city. Funny that there is a place to buy them 2miles outside the city limits. On Forth of July everyone goes to the beach and blows stuff up and the cops cant do anything about the ban because everyone has them. The power of numbers can make any law invalid.
