Of course they still use the reports as an excuse to keep fireworks banned in my state and the rest so that all of neighboring states can enjoy their tax revenue.

Take away the injuries pertaining to minors and the results are insignificant.

This is true and the injuries pertaining to minors are less than those of the 25-44 age group.
