      As a middle path I propose we let people buy fireworks on a free market. That way they’re there, but nobody is forced to set them off.

        And this “everyone” thing is a straw man.

        If everyone in my neighborhood alone set them off, it would be thousands of people doing this in an area about 0.5 Sq mile/1.29 Sq km/129 ha.

        As is, it’s about 20. And even that is quite entertaining.
