Fireworks

OK, I am getting up on my soapbox - I am sick of fireworks.  I do NOT understand why consumer fireworks are legal anywhere in the United States.  If I want to see and hear fireworks I'll go to commercial displays.  I don't want to be annoyed with listening to my neighbors set this crap off.  I don't want to have to clean this crap off my roof, out of my gutters and garden.  My pets are frightened by them, and  I  wonder about the affect on all the wildlife.  Fireworks pollute.  The Boston Marathon bombers used fireworks to make their bombs.  Fireworks are dangerous; they cause injuries, can kill and cause fires.
So, why are fireworks legal in the majority of states?  Money, money, money!
