What drought? This commission has heard comment from Fire Chief Josh Waldo that there is
danger of fireworks this year because of drought. Do any of you people actually live here?Have you seen the Hyalite reservoir nearly overflowing because of how much rain we've been
getting?
Danger? Hey guys, maybe you can get comment from the ATF and have them weigh in onbanning alcohol, tobacco, and firearms because those things endanger and kill more people in
Bozeman than fireworks 1000 to 1. IT IS NOT YOUR JOB TO NANNY THEPOPULATION.
Fireworks are an integral and traditional part of celebrating this nation's independence from
authoritarianism. Do you not see the hypocrisy in Ordinance 2134?
Don't let the recent surge of non-Montanan refugees influence our policy here.
We will be watching the fireworks show and lighting off our own fireworks at home, just aswe always have before.
