Easy: The City of Houston.

See The City receives A LOT of tax revenues from Mr. Hall's fireworks stands.  It runs the city coffers.

If the State outlaws fireworks completely, the residents of Houston will pay higher property taxes.

And it WAS fireworks that burned 300 homes during Miller' Reach.  Don't be fooled into thinking it wasn't.

The, "live free" mentality of Houston affects the REST OF US in the Borough where fireworks are ILLEGAL 364 days a year... and the GD MSB has NO WAY to enforce these illegal actions.

GUARANTEED:  If another large fire resulting from fireworks happen, the City of Houston will be named in the lawsuit for vicarious liability.  Enough is enough.
