I was wondering, why do we light off fireworks for the 4th of July celebrations?

The idea behind 4th of July celebrations is that when people fought the English during the American Revolution, the colonists won.  It was a big milestone in American history.  There was a ceremony when they won, and people are still doing it as a celebration.

I think it is too dangerous now days.

It is more dangerous now, but the American Revolutionary War was also a very dangerous time.  People could have been hurt or killed.

I think there is a dangerous situation because people can't tell which fireworks are dangerous and which ones are safe, so they can accidentally kill someone.
