Can someone tell me why it’s illegal in some cities in Missouri to shoot fireworks, but in the entire state it is now legal for anyone to carry a concealed firearm? I just don’t understand it.
Fireworks bring families together while guns tear families apart.

Note from KBJ: I don't know whether it should be illegal to "shoot fireworks," Toni, but the reason your state allows law-abiding citizens to carry firearms is that it deters, and therefore prevents, crime. Are you opposed to that? If you disarm law-abiding citizens, who will have guns? Why, the criminals! You should thank your lucky stars that your state has the law that it does, for it protects you and your family every day.
