No! to Backyard Fireworks

[morethanpretty]

Most cities around here don't allow fireworks w/in the limits, but its usually about a 15min drive to a county that allows them. There are fireworks stations set up with a field next to them for people to set their stuff off in. That is some scary shit. My dad, bf, and I went out to one one year, we hung around the firemen my dad is friends with. Usually we do set off fireworks at our house and have a little party with family and friends. My dad is a super nazi about safety though and so far no minor injuries even. This year we're goin out to my brother's new place and he's throwing a huge party that's BYO fireworks, not to sure about it, but since its his farm (someday) then he'll probably be pretty active about safety.
