OKC Fun Police To Crack Down On Fireworks

12:03 PM EDT on June 28, 2021

We have sad news for patriots, pyromaniacs and people who like to torment anxious dogs.

This July 4th, the Oklahoma City Fire Department is pairing up with the OKCPD to enforce ordinances that prohibit the use of fireworks without a permit. Yep, that's right. First, they told us we can’t light up a cigarette within 10 feet of a business’ door. Now they’re trying to tell us we can’t light a firecracker without adult supervision permission from the Fire Marshal. Next, they’re going to make it illegal to burn our used car tires and ash out of our own car windows.
