Rejected petition Only allow quiet fireworks to be sold to the public

UK supermarkets have started selling quiet fireworks that don’t make a loud bang so why should loud fireworks still be sold? There’s no excuse for needing loud fireworks anymore. If people enjoy loud fireworks they should only be able to see them at a professional display.

More details

Animals, PTSD sufferers, autistic people, phobia sufferers etc.... go through hell every year because of the loud sounds of fireworks. If there is fireworks that don’t make a loud bang then why should loud ones be used? There’s no reason. It’s the colours of the fireworks that people like not the sound! They give the exact same colour quality. There’s been multiple petitions about banning the sales of fireworks to the public, you could at least ban loud fireworks that aren’t needed.
