So frustrating to read letters like this asking to "ban" "illegal" fireworks! What about the word illegal don't you understand?  The "several illegal fireworks bursting "above her neighbors house are already illegal!  Your city has an education and/or enforcement issue!  Let the families have their safe and sane legal fireworks (cones and fountains that stay on the ground)  for their traditional celebration of the 4th of July!  Then enforce the CURRENT laws in force against the illegal fireworks!
