Last four posts are spot on...
( edit: the fourth was added in my time in typing the below..lol.. might as well include that one too!)
... and in my opinion, they reflect on just not this thread, but the other fireworks threads also, even some NON fireworks threads they can apply.
Sure, common sense takes precedent. I, for one, will be deeply bummed if we cannot shoot off some fireworks, as it has been a staple for my family since we moved here in 2006. I can understand and support the safety aspect of it all. We always shot them off in a designated area, and from what I have seen, I HAVEN'T seen anyone in these areas NOT use common sense and application of safety.
A few bad apples seem to reflect the OVERALL mentality of the people of Miles City, according to some posters here.
Does the oppressive attitude of some of these same posters reflect the overall opinions of people here in Miles City?
We left California back in '96, moved to Oklahoma City. That city/state, to me, was/is turning into another California.
Is Montana heading in the same direction?
I like the individuality feeling of the State as a whole. In my opinion, we are one of the few states left that give us and allow us to have the freedoms that our forefathers fought for. What our current armed forces fight for.
This is Montana, dammit! This is America! Feel proud and make an attempt to try and make others feel the Air of Freedom that comes with stepping outside in this city.
Lol.. I guess I rambled...

but...
With the back and forth on these forums and the actions of some people that other people say they see, which I sometimes see also, it CAN be conceived as a slippery slope.
Be careful,and however the ruling comes by this week concerning fireworks, celebrate with common sense.
