Questions & Answers

2. Should the City of Newark ban the sale of "safe and sane" fireworks?

At this time I see no reason to ban "safe and sane" fireworks. The tradition of families participating in fireworks displays in front of their homes has been an American tradition for almost 240 years! To me, this is an annual celebration of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness that all Americans enjoy. I believe the vast majority of Newark residents also enjoy this tradition and would not like to see it eliminated.
