A good friend of mine lives in an unincorporated area where fireworks are legal. His neighbor has an "In" with a fireworks dealer and gets his stuff at cost. Every year they do absolutely massive displays; almost as large as "pro" shows, but directly overhead so more impressive. Always a good time, and never any issues. Until this year.
Another guy on the cul de sac wanted in on the fun, and bought a ton of stuff on his own. No problems, except he had a bunch of his retarded gang banger relatives out who were setting stuff off. They put one in the launch tube upside down, it "launched" into the ground, and one of the big ole flaming chunks smacked my wife in the face.
About a 1/2 in below her eye too. She's fine, but we had to leave. If I went over there I don't think I could've controlled myself, and getting sent to prison would not have helped my wife in any way. Irresponsible bastards.
