Quoth MadMike View PostMost fireworks are illegal in PA. That doesn't stop people from obtaining them elsewhere and setting them off anyway.
Over the weekend, the big chain fireworks store up there was running commercials on our local TV station. yeah, thanks, they are also illegal here in MD. Why did the TV station accept that ad?? Oh yeah. $$$$. And the cops down here never do anything about it, either.
And then there are the idiots who decide to shoot them off multiple nights in a row, terrorizing neighbors and their pets for the entire weekend. Grrr....
I guess I should be happy our idiot neighbors aren't shooting them off at people. It's bad enough they shoot them off over other peoples' houses. At least we had rain lately, so it would be less likely to catch one on fire, although I heard of at least two incidents in other nearby towns of firework-related house firesSmile, or I'll smack you silly!
At what age does a vampire become a crazy old bat? :[

Quoth vikingchyk View PostBut it's legal to sell them in PA, it's just illegal for PA residents to buy them. I hear they card you to make sure you are from out-of-state. I'm sure that works, right?
NJ it's illegal though. The state troopers will sit on one side of the bridges from NJ to PA, watch people drive over and buy fireworks, then arrest them when they come straight back over that same bridge. Happens every year."I've found that when you want to know the truth about someone, that someone is probably the last person you should ask." - House

Quoth wolfie View PostVaries from place to place. In Vancouver, it was Dominion Day (the old name for our nation's birthday) and Halloween. In Toronto, CindyBubbles has it right, but it's starting to expand into Halloween as well.

Quoth wolfie View PostThe moral of the story is that NJ residents going to PA to buy fireworks (and PA residents going to NJ to buy booze) should go a few miles into the other state to make their purchases, rather than doing it at the first shop across the state line - in view of their own state's troopers."I've found that when you want to know the truth about someone, that someone is probably the last person you should ask." - House

Break from the ropes your hands are tied.
Uneasy with confrontation.
