couple things
- my town’s fireworks were cancelled because they had hired a new company to supply the display this year, and the company ended up not having a properly certified driver to deliver the fireworks from maryland to beachwood, NJ.
- everyone found this out at 2pm on july 4th.
- the display was not delivered earlier because apparently there was no place to store them.
- my town has been doing this for like 70 years so like. good work everyone involved.
- when calls were made to the company, callers were met with an automated message informing them that the company was closed for the holiday.
- amazing
- mayor was Pissed beyond Pissed. this is a huge thing that my town’s been doing for decades that people invest a lot of money in. everyone’s bummed.
- however
- around 8:30 last night, everyone and their mother started shooting off illegal fireworks, implying that people heard about this, and immediately drove to delaware or pennsylvania, and stocked up on all the good shit that’s illegal in NJ.
- not a single siren/police boat to be seen
- from my aunt’s dock, i had a great view of one house on the water in particular shooting off more fireworks than everyone else, blasting music, tons of smoke and noise.
- it was the mayor’s house
Direct action
