Stop the private sale of fireworks
Rejected
10 signatures
What the petition asks
Fireworks are dangerous and have no need to be sold privately. I love firework shows so feel that only organised and licensed shows/events can buy fireworks. This would stop children getting injured and help the stress put on pets weeks running up to Nov 5th.
