I refuse to buy fireworks or even celebrate while a Russian installed Oligarch wannabee is occupying the White House.
Zero motivation for celebration. Zero.
This will be my 3rd year-I know last year was very slow for fireworks sales. All the crap is made in China now so the stuff will be even more overpriced thanks to his tariffs.
That was free so.....

(9,322 posts)Dont give them the flag. They live on being more patriotic than thou. Dont let them. If you want to save money and not buy overpriced Chinese fireworks, I hear you. But dont let this turn into the War on Christmas 2.0.

(25,183 posts)I am not going to let the occupant of the White House discourage me from celebrating our great country. I'm a naturalized citizen, and I'm glad to be an American.

(249 posts)gets shut down for 4th of July. If you haven't secured your car in the municipal lots or have a friend with a house and driveway the night before, you might as well keep driving.
Basically. Hard to avoid, hard not to be a part of it, especially if you live uptown at the main intersection in town.
I guess I could sit inside, look out the window and be sullen.
Uh, maybe not.
A lot gets forgiven that day!
