Rejected petition Ban loud fireworks for general sale. General public to only buy silent fireworks

Ban the sale of loud fireworks to the general public. Allow only silent fireworks for the public to buy. Make all loud fireworks for the sole use of professional displays

More details

Every year animals die due to fireworks. Especially wildlife as they have no where to escape the sound. I've woken up this morning to post after post where pets have either ran away due to fear or have been injured. One , being a horse has died due to pure fear. Wildlife has no where to escape the noise. This same thing happens every year. Noisey fireworks should only be permitted at professional displays. Silent ones should be made for the general public
