Rejected petition Ban the sale of Fireworks to the public.

This past week one night I heard people setting firworks off in the park located near my house, it appeared to be a group of teenagers doing so.
I witnessed a teenage boy put a firework in my neighbour's garden and set it off.

More details

It's disturbing that teenagers have access to fireworks, they know the dangers that come with them but it doesn't stop them from making stupid choices. I feel that fireworks should only be used at local places for event purposes only and should be banned completely from being sold to the public.
