Fireworks ban and Disney

[A Mickeyfan]

We have a total fireworks fan here in Georgia and yet the Atlanta Braves, the Gwinnett Braves, Chateau Elan, the Mall of Georgia, Lake Lanier, and lots of smaller areas set off fireworks for at least July 4th. Why? Because there are exemptions from everything. For of all, this ban that the OP is referring to doesn't even exist for Disney World. Second of all, if it did, Disney would simply seek an exemption like every other place I've mentioned above that is no where near the conglomarate Disney World is. So big deal. IF, and that 's a big IF fireworks are banned in Osceola County and Disney gets an exemption, what is the big deal? Disney knows how to deal with it and that's why they would get the exemption. Moot point people, move on.

If Osceola has a ban on fireworks, I don't think Disney would even have to apply for an exemption since the MK, Epcot and DHS are in Orange County so actually you are correct, there would be no big deal if Osceola County had a ban on fireworks...

Well ... then ... why spend the time and energy ranting on something that isn't worth the discussion?

Clearly, the thread was started by someone who wanted to dig at WDW and make it seem as though the company was above the law or something similar. Other people have weighed in. Isn't that kind of what a discussion board is for? To, you know ... discuss things? Just because you don't think it's interesting doesn't mean other people shouldn't be allowed to chat. Lighten up!

what ammendment is it? the 1st I believe. Thank you WDSearcher for defending my rights.

with all due respect,,,must be nice to be above the law

I think there is a difference between an experienced pyrotechnique from Disney vs the average Joe who just wants to blow stuff up in a ditch.

According to WESH (local NBC affiliate): "During this year's July 4 celebrations, citizens are encouraged to enjoy professional, permitted fireworks displays at Celebration, St. Could Lakefront or at an area theme park."

Hopefully the past few days are an indicator that rainy season is finally upon us, and should provide some relief to all the fires, and lift a few bans currently in place (Volusia and Osceola are the two I know of atm in the area).
