Crump. Wow at least the council could put the ban in place to give the community at large (the victims of abuse) some protection from the abusers. Assuming the ban would be firm but fair...it should have included: fire works must meet legal requirements and are restricted to use only on July 3rd and 4th ending by 12 midnight. Fireworks only allowed in July on the 3rd and 4th. So if those restrictions were in place an individual experiencing "war like" explosions or fireworks outside the allowed times can call for help and not be told...sorry we can't help you. Come on people we aren't talking about a bang or a pop...there are boatloads of illegal devices, explosions that literally rattle the windows for hours on end,  unnerving pet's and humans  The few who assault our citizens effect their immediate neighbors and whole regions of the city. With no restrictions on the books there is no way to get help. If you don't grasp the degree of abuse, then this "train has left the station." 🙁😈
