Something like lighting up an M80 and tossing it like a grenade? That’s a hold my beer moment.

People can fire off certain fireworks in NH. Until about 10+ years ago fireworks were illegal for an individual to own in NH. HOWEVER - It was legal to SELL them. If you owned a fireworks store you could only sell them to people who lived out of state.

Our $20,000 fireworks display was canceled due to rain and will be held Friday night instead. The local American legion paid for it.

While fireworks and hot dogs have become the norm, it might be worth re-reading the declaration, and as the professors used to say, compare and contrast the events leading to it.
