Dumb asses, they’re everywhere
And where do they live? Nice of them to pick Val Verde to do this illegal stuff in. People have to stop treating Val Verde like this and other rural areas. It would have been safer if they did it in a super populated area like the middle of Walmart parking lot. Total idiots either way.
We saw a lot of illegal fireworks this 4th from high on a hill. No way the 18+ displays we saw were all at legal venues! And this was only in the east end of the SF Valley!! i.e. Burbank to Valley Glen. Nobody cared. Lots of helicopters in the air but nobody responding. Oh well.
F-ing idiots. Found out about this when I woke up. Honestly, I’m shocked they haven’t burned that place to the ground numerous time already the way they light off fireworks. Pisses me off. The 4th is not a comfortable time for me in Val Verde.
easy there – it can be hard to intellectualize two complicated thoughts like fireworks and brush fires…..
Someone also was sparking some last night in the neighborhood behind the jack in the box and Taco Bell on Soledad in canyon country.
those durned kids. with their heckin gobflamnit fireworkles
All anyone who wanted fireworks had to do is drive a few miles down 126 to Fillmore in Ventura County. There were no fewer than 20 sales booths set up there. We need to seek help from the State of California on this completely outlawing sales and use of fireworks of any kind.
good…
It’s strange that people are concerned the day before the 4th of July and the day after.

There’s a shock. ?
dumbasses shud have had fire extinguishers if they were going to go under the law…
Nobody cares about leaking gas pipes?
