Everyone shoots off fire works for the 4th of July, but in my city it is illegal. The cops go around arresting people shooting fireworks. This is unpatriotic. No, no one gets hurt. You can walk an inch out of the city limits and shoot them and get the same injuries that you would get an inch into the city limits!
