Fireworks practitioners must pay for their sins

Change the laws for fireworks

FIREWORKS! The same story every year.

This will never go away it seems. Laws are not abided by and never will be because no one enforces the law.

People argue that during Diwali they, because it is cultural, have the right to light fireworks.

It is the festival of lights and can be beautiful – but not the festival of thunderous noise.

Then we have “Guy Fawkes”, Christmas and New Year. If you get a thrill out of thunderous noise, go and sit outside during an electrical storm.

I suggest we draw up a petition, requesting that the following be made law: that the equivalent of sold fireworks ( to be paid by the seller) and purchased (to be paid by the buyer) be donated to the SPCA to clean up the mess (traumatised, hurt and dead animals), resulting from the deliberate inconsideration of buyers and sellers of fireworks.

This way the seller and the buyer feel the pinch and pay for their sins.
