Oregon law states that any kind of firework that flies into the air is considered illegal, yet up in Washington, these fireworks are legal. Oregonians want the good fireworks, not the ones that stay on the ground, because they just aren't as interesting and they will continue to purchase their fireworks in Washington.
Oregon needs to allow aerial fireworks, because the current law isn't working and cannot be enforced. Most law enforcement agencies cannot keep up with it and it is a waste of taxpayer money. Its time that Oregon follows the laws of Vancouver, because ground fireworks just don't sell as well as aerial fireworks.
We need stronger fireworks laws. Every year it is weeks of hearing fireworks, before and after July 4th. The fire danger is REAL. We need to be smart about it and enforce the laws.

Some places,should be aloud to light off any fireworks and some places you are not even a pop-it is aloud.This 4th of July 2014 was weak in my opinion. Eugene as well as Portland are actually enforcing the laws through the power of the media. This time there overdosing on the subject matter rather you can use illegal fireworks or not.It seams to be working this time around but do they really mean it? If Oregon were to legalize fireworks,then they should only be aloud 3 super stores, one up north,one in the Willamette Vally and one down south. A 50 dollar permit for any one 18 or older lasting 2 years. A 2 day training class lasting 8 hours a day to assure you know what you are doing. Another idea is make it so you cant buy the illegals in Oregon but you can set them off. In my opinion, Oregon and all of the nation is not even making any noise compared to country's like China,Germany,Iceland,India,Tia won and Mexico. Personally if the law makers really wanted to,they would ban all fireworks before the UN council world wide for are own good but looks like they wont do that. Tell then,we will always will have all types of fireworks to shoot off!
