It’s funny to see lemmings not like fireworks. First time the reaction to fireworks has been to cry.
celebrating your terrorist country - NO
taking action action your terrorist government and peers disguised by the sounds of fireworks - YES
let the cat do what it wants
Fireworks might be beautiful for a moment, but they leave behind a trail of harm.
They pollute the air with toxic chemicals and fine dust, spiking asthma and breathing problems. After events like July 4th or Diwali, air quality drops dangerously — and people with lung issues feel it immediately.
The noise isn’t just loud — it’s traumatizing. Pets panic, birds die, and people with PTSD or autism often suffer in silence.
Tradition isn’t a good excuse when it causes this much damage. Not all traditions are worth keeping — especially when they hurt the most vulnerable.
Who cares he’s right. I haven’t met a single person who likes fireworks who isn’t dumb. I have pets and i started to hate loud noises. I personally consider fireworks one of the worst things. And if you have someone who likes this trap them in a room without foo til they change their mind…
the most venuarable get hurt by almost everything, not all of them are gonna live
Funny. In Germany we have been discussing banning fireworks for new years for a while now since more and more people realize the mix of alcohol and fireworks is a bad idea and traumatizing pets, war refugees and old people, killing wildlife and poisoning the air for days to come is not worth it so some people can watch something go boom.
As a German…every year since forever, I ask myself what is so great about this boom boom. Didn’t even wanna do it as a boy. My dad wanted me to want, so HE could do boom boom.
Now that I’m older I still don’t get it. Except now it even hurts to watch money literally explode while there are people that are hungry or have no shelter or no help at all.
I’m glad I live somewhere that only has new years fireworks, and almost no air pollution issues
I root for the cat. I hope he gets the fuckers.
It’s always ‘don’t be a karen and call the cops on illegal fire works’ followed by ‘why the fuck did you not call the cops on the illegal fireworks’ after house fires break out.
I’d like to remind everyone that fireworks are an explosive. Want to know how dangerous fireworks are? Ask ER staff what kind of injuries they see the most on 4th of July.
what kind of injuries they see the most on 4th of July.
The explosive kind?
my cat is shooting back
Let it cook.
Hot take. Fireworks are stupid and disruptive.
Cops are worse.
I dont think Peck was arguing that you should call the cops, just saying that fireworks are bad, a factually correct statement.
Depends on the country
Cancer is worse
Aim your roman candles at cops.
When you see ICE about to kidnap someone - YES
I think that the cops will just work with ICE.
Takes too long though, reaching for a brick though…
People that call for things on the left, don’t spend NYE in Europe
Time for this old treasure
Omg the racist comments jesus
It’s not just the 4th of July. Assholes here sell and set off fireworks for any possible holiday.
But… that’s illegal!
Nah, they made it legal where I’m at, and now there are fireworks tents out for any holiday.
Well… If the wife doesn’t wake up it might be better to just let her get her much needed rest, as well as enjoy some peace and quiet at long last. Plus the ambulance/coroner visit might not be cheaper than a shovel from home depot.
Don’t worry if she starts smelling bad after a few days, it’s natural.
As for the cat, figures. With all the chaos they might as well take advantage of the situation and enact their plan to take over mankind as the dominant species.
Cats are the dominant species. Well, actually ants, but cats are a close second.
I really want to call on the dipshits down the street (they’re aiming their bottle rockets down the street instead of up in the air) but they haven’t broken or burnt anything yet. We might get lucky.
