Democrat tyrant Gavin Newsom and other officials shut down 4th of July festivities in California due to a ‘surge in Coronavirus cases.’
Newsom closed down beaches, bars, restaurants and museums, but his winery, Plumpjack Winery in Napa Valley is still open for business.
Californians revolted and celebrated anyway by lighting up the sky with thousands of illegal fireworks.
Aerial footage over Los Angeles was a sight to see.
There were fireworks being launched in every direction!

Good job, Californians! Now, take off your masks!
Ya, same here in Colorado.
Ya, same here in Colorado.
In the original effort, the bombs were during the war. They celebrated with beverage afterwards. Better finish that way. PlumpJack wasn’t around then.

To be fair, cats hate pretty much everything except food, water, a clean litter box, and staff members who will pet them at will.
+++++
My experience as well. Plus it is well known that cats are liars. And they never wag their tail like dogs do. Stick with dogs for pets. At least they are honest. And, unlike cats, are happy.
Our freedom and rights DO NOT COME FROM THE GOVERNMENT!
In the north bay, the fireworks started shortly after the sunset, and they were continual. We went to bed at about 10 pm and there were so many going off, it sounded like the professionals one’s finale each year.
They went off during most of the night and just before dawn.
Don’t know if it was our Mexican visitors celebrating Viva Corona Virus or just Corona.

Tower cam Video from a local Fox TV station, city wide fireworks going off in Milwaukee
We can see the Fort McDowell Indian Reservation fireworks from our home. They were cancelled this year along with our town’s fireworks due to Ducey’s edicts. Fort McDowell usually has great fireworks and bands playing. AZ has a Repub Gov who acts like a Dem. Really missed live fireworks this year.
“To be fair, cats hate pretty much everything except food, water, a clean litter box, and staff members who will pet them at will.”
Nailed it. Though from the video, I’m guessing there’s more rebels in LA than I would have thought. I’ve been thinking of Dem voters as much like cats. Newsie was talking incredulously about risking a $50K fine. I’m thinking if the government can collect, their financial troubles are over for a day or so. OTH, they might find themselves hanging from a lamp post for trying to collect. Be interesting to see what the election results are this November. In more ways than one.
We live in a suburb a bit North of Milwaukee, WI. All around us last night the sky was lit up by fireworks and bang bombs.
Fireworks can be bought by private citizens in WI but setting them off is forbidden by laws. In a usual 4th of July the local municipalities have a show for the public and that satisfies most of us. Last night, the level of fireworks shot off illegally was astounding.
Wonderful and Hopeful!
I saw the same thing in Long Island last night. Perhaps on a grander scale.
From 8 PM Eastern to past midnight, everywhere and I literally mean everywhere, hundreds of thousands of illegal fireworks going off. The colors, the sparkles, the sounds, it was glorious. There was so much that the visibility was near fog like conditions.
I felt similar feelings when Trump was finally announced President in the wee hours following the election.
Driving home, I actually saw residents right in front of a police cruiser light off these Illegal fireworks.
No fear!
My exact thought as well.
No, that's just the excuse. The real reason is that Newsom and most other Democrats hate the country and don't want liberty and freedom. Instead, they want a totalitarian government with them at the top. War is coming.
Same here, they started early & never let up until around 10pm.
We had one helicopter fly by but that was it..they’re usually everywhere but not last night..seems like the police were letting people celebrate.
My neighborhood here in Orange County was full of fireworks. About the same as any other year.
Same here in Florida
Looking more and more like Spain in 1936. Wonder who will be our Franco?
That is interesting - I’m in an “extreme” fire danger zone and one spark could ignite this entire area.
Usually on the 4th we receive plenty of warnings about “no fireworks” - yet I didn’t hear helicopters or small planes flying over like I usually do.
Just told husband it was an “answer” to Newsom’s latest tyrannical orders (restaurants shut down again).
Same thing here in Hayden, Idaho. The sporadic fireworks start building a month before the Fourth. Then it got really wild on the Third. Last night was the huge crescendo — explosions all over starting well before sundown and lasting to midnight. Around 10 PM it was non-stop explosions and rockets everywhere, especially over the lake. It was BIG stuff with the booms that rattle your innards and windows. You have to go to the nearby Coeur d’Alene Indian Reservation to get the big stuff as the local booths are all the wimpy “safe and sane” fireworks. The local stands were selling out a week ago and the operators said they’d never seen such demand.
We are surrounded by woods and it is a miracle that this whole place doesn’t catch on fire some Independence Day. Fortunately, it’s been a cold and damp spring, so fire season hasn’t taken off yet. We are ready for some summer weather now!
