SIR: Why do today's juvenile idiots think it's so funny/amusing to misuse fireworks ie. throwing them, putting them in post boxes etc.
Why we still celebrate Guy Fawkes night I just don't know.
It all boils down to money.
Shopkeepers sell them well before November. Bonfire Night should be banned because too many people are putting their lives at risk of being seriously burhned or injured. Ban it now.
