    The thing I don’t really get about it is people who attacked him using fireworks are already intentionally breaking the law. How would that ban stop them? And it’s not like all the fireworks are going to magically disappear in a few days.

    It’ll only make people who wanted to have some fun on a public holiday dislike him even more.

    (I might add that in general, I think banning or regulating public use of fireworks is probably a good idea, those things cause an unnecessary amount of damage due to improper use. But after some thought, consultation with experts and with adequate regulations to allow for relatively safe stuff to exist, not as a reactionary fuck you.)
