You know what Pablo, I couldn’t agree with you more! As a resident of this city for over 30 years, I’m sick and tired of all these M-80’s, bottle rockets, and so on going off all day and night. The sad part is that the PD doesn’t have the man power to do anything about it. It’s so frustrating trying to sleep, watch the ball game, or anything else with those mini bombs going off every other minute. I understand that the firework stands are a huge tax benefit to the city, and I know that it’s a nice source of income for a lot of the non-profits, but seriously I’m tired of these kids just blowing them up. I bet you that 50% couldn’t name 10 presidents, or the actual date of independence.
