Petition Action

Stop the sale of fireworks to the general public.

Petition Details

There are countless stories of how fireworks are used to cause damage, inflict pain and disrupt the peace.
They are used to throw at people walking their dogs, posted through letter boxes, thrown at cars and wildlife and used as ammo at protests.
They are too dangerous to be given to the public.

Additional Information

One woman was in a car with her children when one of a group of boys threw a firework underneath it."

One of the many scenes of when fireworks have been purposely used to cause trouble.
There shouldn't be an option for this to happen.

People's and animal's lives are being put at risk by idiots who use these items. I am aware that many people use fireworks appropriately, but even then, there are animals and children that are hurt and terribly frightened by the unexpected loud noises.
