> But this is none of your business. I live in Germany, where everything is regulated by well meaning people.

Assuming you haven't lived in the US I think you're severely underestimating some of the stupidity going on.

So let's say your house has a thatched roof in California where it's bone dry and hot. At that point, the person lighting the fireworks will still say it's none of your business. Even if it's illegal and every year houses burn down as a result.

I don't think you get how much of an 'I don't care about anyone else, because FREEDOM... Murica' mindset exists unless you've lived there

[cucumber3732842]

You wouldn't be allowed to have a thatched roof house in California specifically because of the fire risk.

And if someone wanted to and had a bunch of reasons why it was a good thing you would turn around and be all "but the law" and point to the fire risk.

[hvb2]

Fine, bad example. The point being, people light fireworks in places with extreme fire risk. And don't you dare tell them they cannot. None of your business is the kind response

You mean like a temporary shelter in woods or maybe it’s a translation issue?

Speaking of, having a thatched roof in a dry fire prone area would sort of fall in the same category.

A thatched roof?

[woeirua]

Thatched roofs don't exist in CA.

[agensaequivocum]

Oh no we cannot allow plebs to do anything that has the possibility no matter how small of a bad outcome.

Let's say you don't live in a California. Say you live near the East coast somewhere, as 2/3rds of the country does.

[alsetmusic]

Sure, but our economy stomps most East Coast states (hello, New York!) and we aren't neighbors of the confederacy.
