Weeks of fireworks display shows lack of consideration

Well, I hope you are well pleased with yourselves, deciding that your America means you can do illegal fireworks for weeks just because you can get away with it.

Never mind that the hills are tinder-dry and that San Jose could become the next Santa Rosa or Paradise.

The America you live in seems to let you live without consideration or any kind of self-restraint, simply because you can’t control yourselves.

And now, like any other irresponsibly self-entitled people, you will probably attack me for having spoken up.
