Sorry to be nofunallowed.jpg on NYE and I don't know what the laws are in other neck of the woods (do tell), but here in Sweden every asshole who can get their hands on pyrotechnics can do so.
And that results in them aiming at people at the squares during midnight, cops are getting shot at during incidents, big firework "cakes" being placed in the middle of the street and of course cats and dogs being scared shitless.
They've introduced new regulations this year for specific types of fireworks that require education but A. That education is expensive, and B. Police already estimate that people won't abide by it. No one gives a shit.
So no, full ban, I'd say. Do something else fun. A nearby city has offered a free laser show in previous years, seems better for everyone including pets.
