I don't have an issue with fireworks, except that people don't clean up their mess. As for those with PTSD, it sucks that they're suffering from mental anguish, but if we force our society to cater to every single person's problems, then nobody is going to be able to do anything. Hopefully, some of those with PTSD realized that they needed help and are seeking it today. People blowing their hands off are usually stupid people. Accidents happen via crappy manufacturing, but let's be honest, most of these guys are injuring themselves because they're trying to goof off while using explosives. I do get confused about people shooting fireworks off the day(s) before, though. There's a large hispanic population around me and these folks barely need half an excuse to celebrate. The last week has been fireworks and parties every night. It's pretty hilarious, but confusing at the same time.
