Opinion on Fireworks?

Recommended Posts

Ok, who ever is the person setting off fireworks atm. go kys or smth. They are not even fireworks just sounds like small bombs going off here. It's been communicated a lot here - can we not do fireworks ourself this year. - Plenty of Ukraine refugees in area with possible PTSD and so.

Pointless terrible tings. Good at shows but put in the hands of stupid people and stupid things happen. Plus just the general environment they create can be traumatic for people and animals. Shouldn't be on sale to the public imo.

dont mind the official ones altho i dont get why theyre necessary. individuals setting off explosives with the aim to make as much noise as possible are annoying tho

 

like if ur life depends on setting off explosives for excitement/sense of thrill and adventure then ure boring as fuck and have no reason to celebrate

Don't mind them personally, also wouldn't mind if they didn't happen

I know one largely unfortunate thing is they scare the crap out of animals and I think not everyone realizes that, i've even heard of animals supposedly having panic/heart attacks but unsure how true that is.

ye birds fall to their deaths in large numbers every year, other animals often injure themselves to the point where they have to be put down (horses with broken legs from trying to jump out of their stables in panic), small animals getting heart attacks etc. 

 

u can google for dead birds in rome after fireworks, that were some painful photos last year. not sure about this year and dont want to look it up cause it hurts to see

honestly an official show is probably ok in my book is proper precautions are made not to harm wildlife. 

 

part of me views this as an industry that is just a waste of resources that could be put to better use. i also think that any firework that can seriously injure somebody shouldn’t be sold to the public (bottle rockets, firecrackers, etc. are ok).

yea this would be the main reason i dont really care for them but if they're done in a safe enough setting where this isn't a concern if possible then i don't really care

as long as they don't hurt anyone/anything they're neat to look at, maybe a minor annoyance if you're trying to sleep but oh well

yer the official ones are over within 10-15 mins and idc about them. but ppl setting off their own ones for days before and after nye and putting them in glass bottles, trash cans, sewers etc to make them even louder 

 

not to mention the air pollution stats always skyrocketing after nye from all the dust in the air
