Punchline:
"What concerns me more than anything is the growing evidence that Germany has a
problem when it comes to fireworks. Every year, hospitals across the country
plead with the population to act with more care, but annually they are ignored.
Statistics suggest that drunken men are the most likely to be maimed by
fireworks, but more shockingly, children are often in a “second wave” that
comes on New Year’s Day, when they find active fireworks that have been
discarded, or fireworks that failed to explode. All of this could be avoided
with some basic education on firework handling, but as of now, that seems
unlikely to happen on an organised scale."
Via Christoph S, who wrote "Yep fully agree!"
