  Fireworks also aren’t legal in large swathes of the US. Doesn’t stop people.

    Well the difference is I can call the city bylaw officer and they’ll go tell them to quit it, and I won’t get shot.

      Fireworks are very illegal in my state.

      My first Christmas living here when the fireworks we’re going off in the middle of the night I called the cops for the first time in my life. Turns out Joe used to be a cop in the next town over and all my neighbors already knew he was basically immune. I ended up getting a noise complaint because of my dogs, as the fireworks were still going off on the street behind me.

        Omigod that’s terrible.

        But I wish I lived somewhere fireworks were illegal. It would actually get enforced here.
