Someone ran around Tacoma, WA this past weekend lighting off cherry bombs every few blocks for 2 to 3 hours.
Hartford, CT:
Fireworks are illegal in the city limits—and the police have been responding.

Likely it is experience.
I doubt your average suburbanite could distinguish between gunshots and fireworks by sound.
Considering what’s been happening in our country for the last few months, and especially weeks, I am far less likely to dismiss this off hand than I would have a year ago.
Well the problem with this is that fireworks sound considerably different than gunshots. People in the burbs and the boonies know this. People in the city don’t. Honkeys will just be annoyed until they start hearing what they know is gunfire and then Antifa is going to be put down with violence so hard and fast they will cry out for police brutality.
I think the Hartford scenario is the exact opposite of what the OP is saying.
The local residents are really angry about the fireworks in their city. The city is very densely populated with a lot of mid-rise and high-rise apartment buildings. The fireworks make it hard for folks to sleep—and many of the homes are older and could easily catch on fire.
The Hartford police are responding, and the Mayor has been making media appearances saying that fireworks are illegal and that the perps will be arrested.
So is this is a test—the Hartford Mayor and the police are _not_ standing down—in fact they are increasing their presence in the (mostly black) neighborhoods.
Most white folks abandoned Hartford after the 1968 riots—and have not come back.
Texas is not just hot in the summer, we are dry.
Grass fires can take hundreds if not thousands of acres.
So, no trash fires, campfires, fireworks.
July 4th is on a Saturday and under a full moon.
Just to let you all know.
Around me in Huntington Beach, CA I have not noticed much of an increase over previous years, but then we really haven't had much trouble with Antifa r BLM so far either.
They are also used as weapons.
If this is true, the ones who are going to be hurt the worst by this are the blacks.
Many of them are trapped in those cities with no way out.
Soon as those in the suburbs and rural areas hear about it, and word WILL travel fast, those who are armed will defend themselves. They have nothing to lose because if they don’t, they have everything to lose.
Agreed.
Very interesting.
I’m in SE TX.
We also spend a lot of time in Central TX.
Where in TX are you?
Demonically evil.
Oh, joy.
A trifecta for crazies.
Fort Worth area.
We live on the edge of town and have had grass fires too close for comfort several times.
Wouldn't they want to dismantle the fireworks and reassemble as more powerful explosives?
Where else can ANTIFA types get mass amounts of gunpowder without being traced?

Lots of loud explosions in Palmdale, CA for the last few weeks. More than the usual illegal fireworks from south of the border. Tinder dry conditions.
It is easy to destroy civilization, much more difficult to build a civilization.
Hang in there bro.
We can only hope that a few go off in their hands.
