But they don't use just bangers, no. They use huge bags of powder. These bombs come from China, mainly. But there are illegal workshops in some basement especially in Southern Italy. In the past we used to count ten-twelve dead every New Year's Day, now we only have hundreds of severely injured people. And this is even worse, because they are a burden for our health system, because the need medical care for months and steal the bed to persons who are really in need. Because even after the hospital these people will remain disabled and will get a social pension to refund their inability, and those money come from my pocket, from my taxes. Despite this, there's no way to ban these fireworks, because it's a popular tradition and even with a legal ban there will be always a way to get them from a smuggler!
