Ban noisy fireworks

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the sale of these fireworks to be made illegal and anyone caught using them to be fined and served with a public nuisance charge and animal cruelty. Anyone caught selling anything other then silent fireworks should be ordered to pay a large fine and also given the same charge
This has been a concern for many years and it’s gone on for to long and has affected more people and animals then ever necessary. There is absolutely no reason whatsoever why a firework should go bang, some of the noises these make can be terrifying. Animals suffer a great deal with the noises and that’s clear when you have pets, they are scared, anxious and fearful and for what? We already have silent fireworks and I want the government to make this law and make sure there is no more suffering.
