Kudos to Nick Matras for his July 6 letter to the editor. I wonder: Do these violators — and that’s what they are — read the paper or watch the news about the ban on fireworks. Apparently, they live in another world and set their own rules and regulations that exempt them from law-abiding citizens. Are they that ignorant?
We’re in a severe drought and even a spark can set off a fire.
I can see, hear and smell the fireworks exploding through the trees. I live close to a rehabilitation center and wonder how these folks are coping with the insanity.
Regarding the fireworks stands’ lame excuse that they sell them to help charities. That’s a load of BS. It’s obvious that money takes priority over common sense.
Thanks to the fireworks the dog is still trembling.
