i hate it when firecrackers get banned just because some kid gets a blister or slightly burned. firecrackers don't even hurt that much when they blow up in your hand.
I hate it too. Stupid lame weak ass kids. But one time a friend and I had this shitty but strong flare kind of thing. Well anyways around 1:30 pm we snuck out of his house, ran 2 blocks down, light it and threw it in somebodys backyard. It literally light the whole block up with its bright flashing flare.
