Fireworks have started

[Ice Tea]

Don't know about anyone else but my part of London has had people letting off fireworks every night for the last week or so , seemingly no shortage of importing them.

You don't need a space before a comma, you aren't using a type writer.

Might be voice activated.

They're exciting because they go bang and light up.

Heard the first few home style ones up here in Stoke last night, followed a few minutes later by what I'm guessing was a single "industrial" type one which was just a bright white flash with a single extremely loud boom (far louder than "home" fireworks).

About time these things are banned, they are completely unnecessary. The Scottish government have consulted on it and are planning on tightening things up but can’t see it happening. It’s stupid you can buy these things in Lidl.

And, the football fans now set them off during the day when their team wins?!

Not exciting if you have Hyperacusis, Misophonia, bad nerves or if you have many pets

What about balloons? Can we also put them in a unnecessary category?

Id certainly ban those mass balloon releases that people have as a ‘memorial’, or any other reason.
However, balloons generally aren’t launched towards people/emergency services. They don’t make huge noises, frightening and annoying people and animals. Balloons don’t start fires or scorch the earth either. But, I’d certainly ban the aforementioned mass releases due to the litter problem.

I'd settle for a ban on fireworks outside of +/- 3 days of Guy Fawkes Night and +/- 3 days from Diwali and on New Years Eve... But all bleeding year round is not on.

What would the crime be if they banned it? A fine or all the way and jail time?

death by hanging, what a penelty. Could you imaging if that come back. I think crime rates might drop substantially.

None of that modern stand-on-a-chair-snap-your-neck-hanging either. I want pure asphyxiation.

"What you in for Graham, you little wool, are you a n****?"

"I.. I... I set one too many fireworks off on the wrong date"

"So you're a n**** then!"
