That's why they shouldn't let just anyone buy large fireworks.

This is why people like your self is a communist and you sir live in the wrong country. The data is %.001 of anything going wrong.

I saw nothing out of the ordinary here. What I see is limited crappy fireworks meaning someone is broke and can’t afford the show so they cancelled.

[@SoapiestDiamond]

I was their, a shell exploded in the tube and the rack was aimed towards the crowd when it fell and like 3 giant motors went off right above peoples heads, and the liberal news is lying because over 15 people (mostly children) got minor burns..

Waste of time and money...just like sports

[@gman8591]

That's because you can't play sports.... Just like everything else.... people take things too far and it becomes unlikable. Something like this is a family event to enjoy... That's all.
