“71” – Are you kidding me Salina?! This is ridiculous. Some of you losers need to find a job so you’ll knock of the fireworks at a reasonable time.

“46” – All the welfare rats out spending our money on fireworks. Good idea Salina. Maybe next we can legalize prostitution.

“11” – Couldn’t have asked for a better 4th! Love that we were allowed to express our freedom this year.

“23” – WTF. I have a sick child and people are blowing things up til 3 am. Ban the fireworks for god’s sake!
