The article is scarce on detail, but it sounds very much like this guy got his hands on a 1.3G device of the type used in commercial shows. I forgot to list that rule, but that's a big no no.
Some years ago there were 2 separate fatalities with guys looking down mortar tubes to see why a shell hadn't gone off. A terrible tragedy, but come on - that's just not using common sense.
And of course more people died in pools and boating accidents the same weekend, but you can still do those activities in this state.
For them, against them - I could seriously argue it either way, but there is a lot of misinformation, fear and ignorance about consumer fireworks.
