How do you feel about fireworks? Should they be available to everyone or only professionals?

Fireworks are dangerous for the average person to handle. Fireworks are legal in my city/county. I think they are an accident waiting to happen. With that said, my son spends a small fortune purchasing fireworks similar to the ones used in a controlled fireworks display every year. The videos they send me are awesome. I worry about it, but so far there have been no accidents. This will be about the 20th year he has put on his own display.

The neighbors start their fireworks action at sundown. It continues for about five hours on and off. We keep our two dogs and three cats indoors.

My wider view is that money spent by organizations up to and including the government would be better spent on helping obtain housing for the homeless population.
