I mirror your thinking on this. Every YEAR, the local ankle biting media start yipping and yapping about how the police and fire departments are going to team up and go after those illegal fireworks. I want to shout GIVE IT A REST ALREADY!

Yeah. You’d think the pros would have taken smaller amounts in multiple vehicles. But what do I know?

Catching violent criminals is dangerous. That’s why cops don’t do it.

Far easier to pop some idiot with a garage full of fireworks. They don’t shoot at you.

Where have I seen this before in LA? Oh, yeah: Lethal Weapon: Grab the Cat

LETHAL WEAPON 3...I think LETHAL WEAPON 1 was the best...

I thought about SPEED...Dennis Hopper played a retired police bomb squad officer who is really unhappy...

Questions:
  1. Did they intentionally set them off in the truck, or did they go off accidently, say do to the heat?
  2. What led them to these "fireworks"? Was there a tip? An investigation?
  3. What was the intended use of the "illegal fireworks"? Celebrations or riots?
  4. Were the fireworks poorly designed? Or just not properly permitted? What made them "illegal"?
  5. Who owned these fireworks?

The bomb squad man was walking tall,
Until they scraped him off the wall.

“Bomb Squad...If you see me running, you better catch up!”

Or, more to the point, “flying through the air.”

John C. was a naturally funny guy.
He knew just how to perform certain pivotal lines of dialogue.
“Those aren’t pillows!” is another classic.
