Not sure if we want people eating fireworks though.
I don't think any of us wants that, but shouldn't people be smart enough not to eat fireworks? I get the distinct impression this particular regulation isn't that helpful considering how (if we excuse the harsh language) downright idiotic you have to be to eat fireworks.
Then again Murphy's Law comes to mind, anything that can go wrong will go wrong. Maybe this regulation is much more costly than it is beneficial, but sometimes regulations do actually have benefit-even if they seem dumb.
