Ohioans could legally shoot their own fireworks soon

People in Indiana and Kentucky can legally shoot off own fireworks to celebrate the Fourth of July, and people in Ohio might be able to join them soon.

When I was a kid in Australia we had ‘cracker night’ once a year. I think it coincided with the Queen’s birthday. My dominant recollections are of sustaining burns, being cold outside while we watched them, and the animals being aftraid. Then we’d wake up the next day to news stories about people losing eyes and fingers and animals being tortured. Oh, and terrified dogs. I don’t miss home fireworks one little bit.
