"You know consumers can purchase fireworks in most states and jurisdictions. I'm Captain Joe Bruni with over three decades of firefighting and emergency medical service experience. What we're going to talk about is legal versus illegal fireworks. Every state and jurisdiction has specific laws pertaining to consumer fireworks. From everything like the common sparkler, up to the consumer fireworks like these fountain that emit showers or sparks, in some states even the common sparkler is not legal. In other states the common sparkler and the consumer fireworks that emit showers or sparks are legal. Contact your local police department, fire department, or a quick internet search to help determine what is legal in your state or jurisdiction. And after a search is completed only buy legal fireworks available from shops or booths that are reputable types of manufacturers and distributors. I'm Captain Joe Bruni, stay safe and I'll see you next time."
