CPSC TO DEMO DANGERS WITH CONSUMER AND PROFESSIONAL FIREWORKS AT PRESS CONFERENCE ON THE NATIONAL MALL Fireworks may be a staple for family 4th of July celebrations, but the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is urging consumers to only use legal fireworks and to use them safely. This year, CPSC is warning that a large number of deaths associated with fireworks are related to consumers using professional devices. This year's demonstration will feature a graphic reenactment of an actual incident where a man was killed while setting off professional fireworks. At a news conference to be held on the National Mall, CPSC Acting Chairman Nancy Nord leads a federal push to reduce injuries and deaths associated with all fireworks. CPSC releases new injury and death data, and tips for celebrating safely this holiday. Joining Acting CPSC Chairman Nord will be Chief Charlie Dickinson, Acting Assistant Administrator for U.S. Fire Administration and Lewis Raden, Assistant Director for Enforcement Programs and Services with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

Correction: *Make sure that on a future 4th of July You are able to light more than a candle.*

Granted, I believe large salutes should be illegal. They are one of the very few fireworks that are dangerous no matter how you handle them. But this is one obvious example of what the CPSC is doing currently to consumer fireworks that should be and always have been legal. Go online and mail your representatives. Make sure that on a future 4th of July all you're legally able to light is a candle.

Watermelon with m-1000...If there were no other evidence in this video that the CPSC doesn't have a clue what they're talking about that was it. You would think that the very organization regulating fireworks in this country would know that M-80 is just a military call name just like M-16. Throwing 1000 after the M means absolutely nothing. It is simply one of many scare tactics used to make things seem larger and more dangerous.

Also sell your house and give the money to the Citizen Pacificat-- I mean, Consumer Product Safety Commission. "CPSC - Protecting The Tax Base From Themselves Since 1972"

cpsc i think you all need to sit back and watch this video. Do you really think this video teaches anyone anything? If some one is stupid enough to hold a sparkler to some one and the other person is stupid enough to not move to the point that there on fire then they bolth deserve to die because once there behind the wheel driving then we have a big problem. Stupid anti firework fagots get a life, or go blow up a car with C4 and say it was roman candles. CPSC is the aids virus of fireworks.

The end of the video was the best part! KA-Fucking-BOOM! Why not celebrate your nation's independence by blowing up a part of it?

the fisrt thing who would stand there if they were on fire you fkin idiots dam,and if you make an m-80 you know better than to hold the fkin thing usually put a big fuse on it and put it into a bucket or a hole, wat kind of a dumass put their head over a 5in live shell CPSC must not think, i realized at 1:50 you are "testing" by people,people who do this usually go in the middle of nowhere not by other people, btw out of all the m-80 made ive never got hurt cuz im not rectarded like the SPCS
