Happy fourth of July, everyone!
Let all Americans this day remember what this country was founded on, and what it means, not as a day of fireworks and barbeques and days off work, but as a country where a man can create his own future.
Happy Fourth of July, everyone!
Hope everybody has a great fourth of July!
Yeah, happy Fourth of July everyone.
Harpy Fourth.
We actually celebrated yesterday and saw Despicable Me 3 today, but whatever.
Yeah, we saw fireworks last night, too. :P
happy merica day
Well, I've done little to celebrate past being high off of pain meds, but I hope everyone is having a very patriotic day.
Happy Fourth! I hope you all have a great time today with your family :)
Happy 4th of July!

Happy Fourth!
Happy 4th! ;D
Happy 4th of July, American comrades! ;D
(Trivia: In my country it is celebrated as Fil-Am Friendship Day, a minor holiday. It's the day that PH was declared fully independent by US in 1946.)
Nice!
That's really cool Dotti ^-^
Happy Fourth of July, to every American! We are blessed to be in this country.
Happy 4th, y'all. Please be considerate and keep the fireworks, guns, and explosives to a minimum after 12:30. :P
Lol.
Huzzah.
...
Happy Fourth of July, everyone!
Happy 4th!
Happy 4th!
Can anyone tell me what the logic is behind letting thousands of people shoot explosives into the air rather then say reading the constitution and its amendments to little kids. It seems more patriotic and practical that kids know what the government of the usa is based on then causing thousands of burn injuries. (in my neighborhood alone there were at least 15 or so families setting fireworks off and two ambulances came in the middle of the night probably because of fireworks injuries)
Good grief, Nadaz, that sounds horrible. I hope everyone is mostly okay. I don't really know what the logic is, and I don't really get it myself.
Also, just so y'all know, people were still doing boom-y things at 1:30 and I think the last one I heard was around 2. My sleep schedule is already bad enough, I was not pleased. >_<
Well, when done responsibly, fireworks are great.
Definitely agreed.

I would go out on a limb here and say that most firework related injuries occur when people or kids decide its a good idea to shoot fireworks at each other or play fireworks tag. The most common firework for this appears to be the so call roman candle. The problem here is misuse of a product and not that the product when used as intended is inherently dangerous... Apart from that if you use fireworks as they were intended and follow very basic instructions that come with them any sane person should be fine/safe in using them. They really ain't rocket science...
Anyway happy delayed 4th of July to all the Americans on here!!
