Ban fireworks from being sold to the public

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

We want fireworks banned from being sold to the public and only used for organised display
In this day and age with people suffering from illnesses, mental health disorders, ptsd, etc, etc, (the list is endless) it's about time something was done to reduce the stress, life at the moment is stressful enough without adding to it, that's not even mentioning the criminal activity that such 'celebrations' bring.

Why it was rejected
