This won't stop the illegals. The number of permits bought and the amount of fireworks going off don't match my a long shot. I am deluged by offers of firecrackers and aerials every new years. Banning it won't help much unless the man power to cite people is available.

I agree... I think that they need to ban all fireworks. AFTER they ban gas burning cars and Cigarettes and Alcohol get rid of those first they do much more damage to our environment and air pollution than Fireworks do.Alcaho0l abuse and cigarettes do 100% more damage to our keikis than fire works do

Stop being a hypocrite. fireworks are the least of MANY much bigger problems that this island has

Last week 15 were killed by fireworks in China at a party.

But of course they are free to ship their poison food and junk fireworks over here.
