Last night, those cretins of which you speak were busily lobbing burning

for such behavior. As a punishment for attempted mass murder, they'd be
getting off lightly. (OK, I'm joking.... a little...)
If these idiot want to reproduce, they should launch their fireworks in
an area that isn't so flammable. Whatever happened to going to the beach
for such things?

Pretty much most people have given in and said
the hell with the
fireworks - they've been so harrassed about them on "public service"
commercials, laws, etc and when they go to a fireworks stand they see
the prices for cheap crap that spits some sparks and just say the hell
with it.
You can blame the irresponsible cretins who haplessly set fire to their
neighbors' houses, and the over-reacting city and county councils that
enacted measures banning fireworks because of this.
