they should go after the manufacturers of the fireworks in China
I have to disagree with this. Fireworks are legal in many places. The manufacturer should not be held responsible for the customer's using their product unsafely. That will lead to mass transit only as cars are used irresponsibly. That being said, people need to realize that they are "playing " with explosives. They acquire enough to equal the explosive power of cases of dynamite, then treat it like a single firecracker. If a professional fireworks display that uses less than half of what people acquire here, there are required to have explosive experts, secure containment, fire mitigation, and safety protocols in place. Here, we replace all that with alcohol. The youtube videos of new years here, shows there is obviously no enforcement, either on the day of celebration, or in the policing of importing explosives, probably due to corruption. But we all remember the disaster when the bunker of confiscated fireworks killed someone. As much as we need more enforcement, more emphasis needs to be put on the fires, destruction, and the loss of life, in a way that emphasizes, the irresponsible, and dangerous way theyexplosives were handled. Highlight how explosives are safely handled and precautions taken to prevent an incident like this. Chronical the lives lost, hurt, and forever changed by the reckless behavior of the people, and how many people are doing the same thing, but being "luckier" than others.
