The average number of people injured from fireworks every year-8000.

The average number of children injured from toys every year-250,000.

If you love your children avoid toys.

these people need to stop hating, dont blame fireworks, cuz your mommy and daddy didnt buy you any, so u had to watch the neighbors, asshole..

wow, what a load of crap. if you want to cut down injuries you should try educating the public on proper use rather than this blatant propaganda that only encourages the wrong element to use them. i've shot fireworks for a few decades now and not one injury, then again someone took the time to explain the proper use to me. if the NFPA spent less time fear mongering and more time teaching people to follow the instructions on the side of the package they might help rather than look like jackoffs.

Consumer fireworks are only safe in the hands of those who respect them.

What, no mannequins lifelessly staring down at a fountain as the styrofoam melts away? Free advice: Stick to engineering, not political and social advocacy to exert control over people's lives in this manner..
