Officer, this is all private property and we'll stand where we like.
If the fireworks are "too close", MOVE THEM!
And by the way, what science did you use to determine "too close"?
Yes, those thoughts crossed my mind, and perhaps I might even have been intelligent enough to limit my actions to that, but I know I was pretty hot when he was hollering at me and my guests from the park. Managing to contain myself when, as I was told, he came on my property would have taken extra effort.
I've decided to keep a low profile on this incident, our little community is less than friendly to its citizens.
