I live in socal and it's super dry right now and HOT. The next city over is doing a "fireworks and night of destruction" tomorrow. I know it's unlikely but I hope their fireworks were in that seizure.

I'm all down for a night of destruction, but the fireworks right now is suchhh an easy way to start a wild fire. There's already been a few small ones this past month.

It's crazy to me that fireworks can even be shipped to California, let alone actually used in-state, with how many wildfires they've caused. I genuinely would not trust people with them at this point

And i don't mean "mailed" or "trucked", I mean "turn that ship north and go the long way fuckers, not in this port" shipped.
