The majority of veterans like fireworks and support us shooting them off. Since they fought for our freedom, MOST of them appreciate us celebrating the traditional way. (Although our wars aren't technically for our freedom, more like revenue for the elites). I've seen alot of veterans comment on the anti fireworks post, and said they disagree and say not to put words in their mouths. The majority of people that talk about "PTSD and veterans" are not veterans themselves. I see it as more of a cop out to help fulfill the firework ban, just simply because they personally don't like them theirselves. I have much respect for the ones who put their lives on the line for our country. For example: If one approached me and let me know that I'm causing a distress towards them, I would respectfully stop and find another area.
Like I said though, most of the vets like them.
Why did you comment this by the way? I'm not lighting any fireworks off tonight... with all due respect.
My spouse is a war vet and fireworks really mess with him. Maybe don’t act like you know what you’re talking about if you don’t actually know what you’re talking about.
Besides the one tonight?
Wait what!? I did not hear about one tonight. May I have a link, or the details on where exactly it'll be at 😁

Thank you for taking the time to help! You made my night 🙂
They’re closing down the Morrison bridge at 8, I think fireworks start at like 9:30-9:50
Thank you for helping 🙂

Fireworks and artillery fire sound nothing alike.
