This is video about fireworks in Hawaii. This time of year after the New Year holiday it makes good political BS to introduce a bill to stop fireworks. Hawaii has been one of my most hardest states to crack on the ATF license. The reason is Hawaii Explosives and another distributor are not selling 1.3 fireworks without you purchasing a display from them. I talked to the guy at Hawaii Explosives two years ago. He and another distributor are trying to control all the pyrotechnics in Hawaii. How Grucci managed to get on Hawaii I have no idea.
One of my subscribers from Hawaii send me pictures of smuggled fireworks hidden in the back of shipping containers. The had foreign labels. LOL If I remember correctly only firecrackers are legal two times a year and you need a tax paid coupon to buy them.

Have you heard the illegal fireworks skyrocketing in your neighborhood?
The Honolulu Police Department has been flooded with complaints about the noise, and now one state senator is speaking out saying illegal fireworks are a problem in Hawaii.
Senator Will Espero says he saw illegal fireworks all over his community on New Years Eve.
He adds smuggling those fireworks into Hawaii has been a problem for years. So how do they get into our state?
Right now, cargo coming from another country is inspected by U-S Customs and Boarder Protection, but Espero says shipments from the mainland are not always looked over.
He says, "only a small fraction of the thousands of containers brought from the mainland are inspected. Only about 10 percent and I'm told of those, the container is not completely inspected."
Espero wants to add another layer of enforcement to make sure the illegal stuff doesn't make it into Hawaii.
His defense? Explosive sniffing dogs.
The pups would check out loads coming from the mainland.
"Today, no containers are inspected when they arrive in Hawaii from the mainland. This would allow us to begin a random inspection program from containers that come to Hawaii. "
Espero thinks the added layer of protection would cost the state about a half million dollars
