Alright, I’m going to launch explosives around your house. For several hours. Yes it is dangerous and terrible for wildlife and the environment. And yes your pets will get sick from eating the debris and you will feel terrorized inside your own home.
No you can’t opt out of it. Everyone is doing it and frankly it’s weird that you don’t want to.
No you can’t be the one launching the explosives you need a license for that. You can however launch these marginally smaller ones though. Yeah just whenever you want. 2am sounds great.
So anyway, fireworks were a mistake and it’s never too early to start reminding you of that.
Whipping out your privilege of owning a lot of land doesn’t suddenly make those kids not dying in mines for your electronics and trees not getting cut down for your books.
So nice try but that’s got nothing to do with this conversation, and owning a farm doesn’t make you right all the time, nor a better person.
I kinda doubt you’re on a farm, honestly, if you have that much of an opinion about fireworks. You don’t have them blasting off from your neighbors right next to your house till 3am like people in the city do.
