A boy in my year at school was blinded in one eye when messing about with fireworks and one went off in his face. We have some of the strictest fire arms laws in the world, but anyone can walk into a shop and buy fireworks here. It really doesn’t make sense when you think about it. I’d like to see them kept to organised displays.
That would be a good compromise, yeah. I think people often forget that they're basically like bombs
Another one of mine: while I don't believe in the "fat positivity" movement I don't think news publications should comment on someone's weight where it is not relevant. There's no reason to do it other than to encourage making fun of fat people. I remember a lot of news reports about Vanessa George highlighted that she weighed around 20st - as if that's somehow worse than the fact that she seriously abused children too young to have started school yet?
