As a kid I loved them, my parents didn't have much spare cash but they did always find some to buy a small box. I spent most of the night watching other peoples displays. The fireworks then we're mostly light shows, with an occasional fizz and bang. Over the years they have changed, the emphasis now appears to be on the noise they make, the light show being secondary. This, to me, is the root of the problem, as it causes issues with many animals and also some humans suffering from trauma. Unless the emphasis changed back to the light show, objections will continue to be made until some sort of sales ban is in place, and that will be a sad day as it is avoidable.
