WTF! Legal Fireworks?!

We tend to get shocked by the insane stupidity that is found in the the hell known as Philadelphia and Pennsylvania. Apparently fireworks are legal and easily obtained. Legal fireworks are definitely a sign you are in some sort of backwards hick redneck state.

From an early age, we had it drilled into us that it was unsafe to handle fireworks unless you were a train professional, usuallythe form of some FDNY lieutenant or by the New Jersey State Police making a mannequin go boom. So seeing these dangerous items on sale on the sales floor of a K-Mart was a big shock. How could such a retailer sell such dangerous goods and have them just sitting out on the sales floor? It seems a bit insane, especially when they are a fire hazard.
