Johnson County deputies don't want to see your children struggling to grasp your miserable stump of a hand after the Fourth of July, so they're enforcing the fireworks ban in JoCo all weekend.
"According to county regulations, fireworks,
including sparklers, are illegal without a permit in all unincorporated areas of Johnson County" (emphasis MINE! ALL MINE!), according to Master Deputy Tom Erickson, the official holiday joy-dampener with the Johnson County Sheriff's office.(Fireworks remain illegal without a permit in the incorporated parts of the county, too.)
If you get busted buying or selling fireworks in JoCo, the fines can be between $25 (
for the worst fireworks ever perhaps) up to $100 (yeah, baby,
depleted uranium!!!).
