Mom of man killed setting off fireworks on head: rules lax - GoFuckYourself.com

brassmonkey · 07-07-2015, 11:04 AM

PORTLAND, Maine (AP) ? The mother of a man who tried to launch a firework off the top of his head for July Fourth and was killed instantly said Monday she's advocating for stricter controls about who can use the explosives.
stupid bitch

Devon Staples, 22, and his friends had been drinking and setting off fireworks Saturday night in a backyard in Staples' eastern Maine hometown, Calais, when the accident happened with a reloadable fireworks mortar tube, police have said.

Staples' mother, Kathleen Staples, said she is going to reach out to lawmakers about the possibility of tighter controls over fireworks. The state should consider requiring safety training courses before allowing someone to use them, she said. She compared fireworks with other regulated items such as cars and guns.

"At least it'd be a little bit more than, 'Here you go,'" Staples said. "That's an explosive. They didn't just hand me a license and put me in the car." Devon Staples also had lived in the Orlando, Florida, area, where he worked as a performer portraying Disney characters such as Gaston from "Beauty and the Beast" and Goofy, his mother said.

She said he believed the firework was "a dud" that was unlikely to hurt him. State Fire Marshal Joe Thomas said that is unlikely because the mortar had been fired once previously and he "can't imagine someone would anticipate that it was a dud."

Well if she's got a "dumb ass" test that could have pointed out her son then she should give it to us.

Her boy was an aspiring actor, had a girlfriend, was turning his life around, he din do nuffin and got killed by the greedy Republican fireworks industry.

Another lowest common denominator law about to go into effect.

she doesn't seem very upset about her son's death. she's more concerned with blaming the system.

I think you should have to show ID before purchasing beer to prove you don't live within 300 feet of a swamp.

Her son was so retarded that he blew a mortar off of his head.

Can't blame her for being in denial, LOL.

Sounds like they should have a test to see if you and your potential mate are going to turn out idiots or not. Fail the test, no breeding allowed.

We need to run some Freakonomics.

If we let them kill themselves early on, the collateral damage might be minimal enough to the point where it's beneficial to us all as a society. Plus think of all of the money saved if that person is not going to school, that's hundreds of thousands!

i know it appears IQ is a factor. But as alcohol is also involved, i would not pass judgement on IQ cause when someones drunk, even really smart people do retard things.

alcohol plus fireworks.

we used to have bottle rocket fights. holding the bottle rocket by the stick, you can flick it right before it launches and send it flying toward your adversary, who would have to stay in the area where the bottle rocket would blow up. good times but we caught the carpet on fire in my parent's indoor/outdoor entertainment area, on account of a bad aim. my dad was pissed off at those drive-by teenage hooligans we blamed that one on!

roman candle's gotta sting when ya get hit eh!

getting the bottle rocket to blow up timed properly with a hit was difficult, not to mention flicking it right before it burned your hand firing on launch.

iFriends · 07-10-2015, 12:05 PM

The bottle rocket noises scared me more, so I didn't f with those, lol.

Colmike9 · 07-10-2015, 12:42 PM

I lit 144 little bottle rockets at once and they fell pointed towards me right when I lit them..

Seriously though, just make mortars illegal like M80s/M60s/Cherry bombs in most places, they're the ones ruining all the fun for the rest of the fireworks.
