They never should have taken away those M-80s.. Those were fun.

1/4 of a stick of dynamite. :thumbsup

Black Cat sells a 16K pack. It's a roll with 16,000 firecrackers. :1orglaugh

sounds fun. luckily for me i have friends and family with farmland outside of town where i can shoot off my "illegal" fireworks in large empty fields. after several years doing it i couldnt imagine shooting these fireworks off in town with many homes featuring woodshake roofs and dead grass surrounding them.

wow, they are fucking dangerous...

Dont know, but we have enough fireworks to blow up an entire block this year.

Must just be your area/state they are illegal. A trip to the Indian reservation here has all you can want and its legal to light them so long as you arent in the city limits. Gamble on the reservation, get drunk, lose money then drive home and light off some cannons....:helpme

So you agree with the legalisation of hard drugs? The only reason they are illegal is to protect us from ourselves.

They are illegal because the majority of assholes who shoot them off at the public parks, beaches, etc, don't clean up after their fucking selves.

It's as simple as that.

You mean like smokers...

FIDDY

I was on the dock of a jetty at a large Corps of Engineers lake so it was over water.

That is what I need. I just blew off another out of a launcher. One of those big pretty blooms in the sky, along with a report.

Even 75' in the air it set off a few alarms.

These people need to turn off their car alarms for the month of July.

Actually smokers are worse, they don't even care about themself enough to not poison themself so of course they don't care about the people they are poisoning around them.

This is true.

I was eating dinner last night and this fucking worn out Asian woman was sitting with her child (maybe 10 years old) and her American husband. After dinner she lit up and was just blowing smoke right into her husbands and childs face.

And she was a bad smoker. She would inhale and then blow out the second she would inhale, taking nothing inside almost... but blowing it right into her kids face. Unreal.

I wanted to punch her in the throat and pout hot sauce in her eyes. :mad:

cigarettes should be made illegal and fireworks should be legalized and taxed to take its place

So guns are legal but fireworks are not ?

(or : I guess I should change my licence for a photoshop one then)

wow, that's some hardcore shit, almost puked after seeing that pic :-/

americans have the right to bare arms, not to blow shit up :P

LOL, when I was a kid and we played army, we'd use live firecrackers as our little grenades to throw at each other's position.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

We had bottle rocket wars in highschool.

Get a bunch of 3'-6' pvc pipes, cap off one end.

A few thousand doven rockets. Show up to the firework stands at about 11:50pm on the last day they can sell them and you'll get insane deals.

Get some ones older bother to buy a bunch of beer.

Find a big field out in the middle of no where. If there's cows in the field it's just that much more fun :1orglaugh

Split off in groups of 3 or more in oppisite ends of the field.....you can figure the rest out:)


....why are they now illegal in some places? :1orglaugh

because you are so intent on taking pictures of yourself you would forget to let go of the firecracker after lighting it.

That's a good question. I'm not sure why. I think they're much more dangerous than guns for example and probably can cause much more damage to property and so on. Maybe quality control would be a huge issue too. They're probably categorized as bombs because that's exactly what they are.

You can also start some pretty massive brush fires in some states.

Baddog, am I going to see you on the news?

you can't be serious!
ROFL
:1orglaugh
you elect Arnold the Terminator for Governor, live in a place pron to earthquakes, brushfires and worse and you want to play with fireworks?
:1orglaugh
ROFL!
:1orglaugh
no. I don't think so!
you Californian's are kind of cute when you try to think.
:1orglaugh

Fuck! it's getting annoying... People have been shooting off fireworks for the last 3 weeks here. Every fucking friday saturday it's been non stop for hours.. Last night OMG... they started at 5pm and went till 2 AM... BIG FUCKING STUFF. My whole house shook at least a couple dozen times.. They must have morgaged to afford that.. I figure at least a couple grand last night alone. I'm sure tonights going to be even worst. I can see why they are getting outlawed. This morning I get up and there all kinds of crap in my back yard that I have to go and clean up now.

I'm all for having a good time, but these people are taking it way to far. Christ, They are shooting this shit off from a small valley thats completely surrounded by houses and trees, (Thick trees and shrubs They are only about 2 Yards down from me and it thick enought not to be able to see the bonfire they have going) They are just low enough that the shit explodes at about the same level as all our houses on top of the hill. Tonight there's going to be a war if they start.

Tonight I'm going to be setting up the camera on my back deck, and try to get a couple pictures of exactly what I'm talking about.

I know in the midwest, some states are just concerned about fires. Entire fields have been burned down by fireworks. This time of the year though the fields are green and alive, not brown and dead.

Mostly cause the do gooders of the State and Local governments could outlaw them. These people love the power they have. Fireworks are not protected by the Constitution.

The reasoning usually is to protect the kids or protect the drunks. In some cases I have to agree with the laws. Pisses me off to see dozens of spent bottle rockets on my roof the next morning. Drunk people do stupid things. As it turns out I suspect people generally look at fireworks as toys and guns as weapons.

In the state I live fireworks are legal to buy. Most municipalities have outlawed them. They get shot off anyway.

one word! DEADLY! lol!

Cuz people like that get killed

I bet Niko is gonna have a great 4th July. Thats one thing i miss about Arizona, Niko and his blowing things up :1orglaugh
I never did get to see the balloon one :(

Nah, my neighbors are used to me by now

When I stayed with him for the Phoenix Forum we did it. It was great. Pics

Fireworks are useless and dangerous and appeal - seemingly - to the most outrageously immature and moronic people around. They can start fires and blow off body parts. All for what? A pretty light show and loud noises. Weee! I've never understood the allure. Inevitably, the illegal kind are lit off around midnight after everyone's gone to sleep during the week leading up to the Fourth and for days afterwards.

And, heck, if you haven't figured it out by now the Indians that sell the illegal fireworks get a kick out of imagining what body parts the idiot white people are going to blow off this year.

I know and im jealous :disgust

I did not vote for that idiot, fireworks have been illegal here a long time before he was voted in, and there has never been a brush fire at the beach that I am aware of.

nasty pics
