We're not fans.  Especially not of the variety that seems popular this year, with an enormous earth-shattering kaboom but no colors in the sky.  One night, I saw the flash of it reflect off a car on the next street behind my house.  It's just intended to be loud; that's all it does.  The gunfire is bad enough, but for days now we've had cannon fire in the #WarzoneInMinneapolis.
