Ban the sale of class 3 display fireworks to the general public
Ban the sale of class 3 fireworks to the general public
I'd like the government to ban the sale of class 3 fireworks due to a few reason.
People seem to be using these fireworks all year around.
Most of these fireworks have a retreat distance of between 20 and 50 meters. I'm pretty sure that most suburban gardens aren't that big, so this would increase risk of injury.
Lastly the volume of the explosion causes immense stress and worry to countless pets and wild animals. I'd also assume that it causes upset to some older residents
