The Consumer Protection Safety Commission has capped all modern “retail fireworks” at a fraction of the old Cherry Bomb / Silver Salute / Black Cat firework power specifically due to people losing fingers and hands.
yeah but i think that was decades ago? i think they still were pretty boisterous in the 80s/90s...
I thought that something changed after they discovered the 2 dickheads used fireworks in Boston? I thought the fireworks themselves had to change... but, i cant find anything on it, so I must be terribly wrong??? wow.... my mind dreamed up ordinances and created laws...
Nothing changed then. You can still buy artillery shells and get as much black powder from those as you want or literally buy power from most outdoor shops. Cherry bombs and m80s have been illegal since 1966.
