Merciasou asked if fireworks should be banned in the terrorist age. Aside from that, what good do fireworks do after you see the pretty lights and bangs. I would like to shut people up in an enclosed space and let them off constantly until they went insane. Then they would appreciate how domestic animals and farm animals feel.

I infact love fireworks! I enjoy watching them and setting them off. It has become a Forth of July tradition with my friends and I to see who can find the best and put on the best show. I many states you are not allowed to do this, bbut we vaction in Maryland at this time of the year where they are legal.
I do agree that some people are not safe about putting off fireworks, but there are many who are. As for the animals who don't understand what is going on a geat frightened by them... yes it is a shame, but I'm sure they do not know what to think of many things that humans do.

Since fireworks are used world wide as a tool for celebrations banning it in one country is a little useless. Please read my source link. The history will explain how humans have been using fireworks for centuries. As far as animals are concerned some of them actually enjoy them -- I have a dog who loves fireworks. If I lock her up in the house she cries until I let her out. She is probably the exception to the rule of animals and fireworks.

all our freerange chickens are locked up today, we loose the free range status for a month thanks to 2 families in our village.
Does that sound right or fair ?
I think not.
If we didn't lock them up they would run and hide, some would die of shock ( as happened in years we did'nt lock them up )
Our farm has been here 400 years, the village about 100, the houses about 50, the 2 families 5 yrs.
fireworks should have a limit on volume and light. Fireworks 15 years ago were ok, who do we have to have semtex powered ones now ?

I think that if we can come up with a way to make gun power contribute to the creative side of humanity, like fireworks for instance then we should enjoy them for what they are, an expression of someones artistic side.
From the way I'm interpreting your question, I would say you are like the majority of conservative farmers I grew up with
As far as putting people into a room and detonating explosives till they went insane....how could such a good person as yourself ( i would almost lay money on a bet that says you are christian too) even think of such a thing....guess after you make them insane, someone should toss you in the room with them and lock the door so you cant get out!
as far as banning fireworks in a terrorist age .... why would you?, I would imagine that terrorists could come up with much better means of attacking than roman candles or pinwheels.

A few years ago it just used to be a week or so either side of Bonfire night. Now there hardly seems like a week goes by where some is'nt letting them off, and that's all year round, and from September to half way through November it's every day and night. Somewhat repetetive to say the least, and da**ed annoying.

Fireworks are a celebration of YOUR independence! Anyone can get hurt doing stupid thing .Give me a break, there are lots of dangerous things that one should focus on besides attacking American traditions.Fireworks are cool.If you... act like an idiot with anything you might get hurt.The animals are okay.Just put them inside when your are doing them.

I don't buy them but I do watch them from time to time.
I agree about the animals, my kitty just hates the noise they make & goes a little looney when they go off.

Fireworks are a sheer waste of money, they cost sooo much money which just go up in a puff of smoke within seconds, I am not a spolit sport I do enjoy watching them at a fire works display but I don't waste my hard earnt cash on them, so I buy my kids a toy instead, which in the long run lasts much much longer than fire works do.
