Happy 4th of July ...
Yep. Fireworks are banned here in Texas for this 4th of July. It's so screwed
up. I should get a gun and shoot flammable cans to make my own fireworks.

Darn it I'm to late. But hope everyone had fun! Sucks when you can't celebrate.

Re: Happy 4th of July ...
That sucks. These fireworks up at Hampton, PA, were amazing. My dad kept saying ''Best 16 minute firework show I've ever seen.'' I will post it on YouTube and show you where to watch it.

Think about that statement for a minute. It's kinda true. The 4th is celebrating out Independence and those to fight for us and sacrificed their lives for us. Now fireworks being banned may not be a big deal to everyone, but the fireworks are more or less a tradition. So by banning fireworks and not at least allowing them to be fired off on the 4th of July is banning a tradition that celebrates what we stand for, right? Or perhaps there was an actual valid reason for the banning and they were just banned due to a high rate of a of accidents or something and they felt the need to prevent it. I wouldn't know.

Re: Happy 4th of July ...
I think they were banned in some places because it's too dry, not because they're trying to "restrict freedom" or something stupid like that.
We still had them up north, though. I saw some pretty amazing ones with KingLambda in Wisconsin.

She's right, guys. I didn't post this thread because the ban "lessens our
freedom." It really is too dry over here to be setting off fireworks. Also,
there's a lot of stupid people here that don't know how to use fireworks safely.
I'm simply saddened with the fact that I don't get to blow stuff up. Of
course, my friends and I know how to safely do that. We also keep a fire
extinguisher just in case of [duh] a fire.

Re: Happy 4th of July ...
I like making explosions, but when there's no flammables nearby, I go for elementary chemistry. Baking soda, vinegar, and a bottle with the cap is fun. I blew up a water bottle like a balloon, and then chopped the cap off with an axe because we couldn't twist it off.
