• I hate fireworks! My dog spends the entire night under my bed shaking the entire bed he is sooo scared. And they keep waking my kids! New Years is the worst really! It's midnight my kids are sleeping have respect!

• I live in IL where it's illegal too.  I work for 911 dispatch and getting the state's attorney to approve charges for fireworks is hard to do.  I guess they have bigger fish to fry.  Not saying that it's the same where you are though.

• Here in IL they are always illegal.  A lot of people drive over into IN to get them.

• We write ordinance citations for fireworks....much easeir that way.  We usually give warnings first, though, and if they don't stop we cite them.  Nights like tonights it's one fireworks complaint after another!

• Being illegal no doubt it is stupid.  I've seen stupider though regretfully... Last year a bunch of teen boys next door took aside one of their friend's - Shoved a bottle rocket up his butt and lit it on fire...He literally had fireworks coming out of his backside and even worse was that he volunteered to do it. 

  He ended up suffering from severe anal burn and couldn't sit down or shit properly for weeks....Talk about intelligent....

•  OP, you must live next door to me, because that's the only house that isn't setting of fireworks in my neighborhood right now.  I swear it sounds like downtown Baghdad here.  Just pissed about it.  It's 11:00 pm here now and here's the thing....  Fireworks are illegal in Colorado.  It's illegal to even have them in your possesion.  And we have noise ordinances - starting at 10:00pm.   My neighborhood has had fireworks goign off for the past THREE F'ING WEEKS!!!  And in my neighborhood, it will continue for THREE MORE F'ING WEEKS! 

  and I have a ONE year old that is trying to sleep.  My head hurts and I now hate July 4th.
