Shooting off fireworks in the U.S. on Thursday night July 3rd. Cool or fool?

Question

I asked in Polls & Surveys too but wanted also to ask in my "home section".

Answer 1

Cool if you're under 15 or just testing, or if it's illegal in your state... uncool if you're an adult, have an arsenal, it's legal in your state and everyone's had it up to their ears and isn't that excited about them, or you consider sparklers to be fireworks. It's fool if you're lighting it with toddlers and babies a few feet away, have really long grass where you're lighting them, lighting them though they're aimed towards the audience (or your face), or are holding it as you light it.
