- Desmond Shaw reports from SkyCal, where he takes a look at the thousands of illegal fireworks lighting up the night sky over LA County on the Fourth of July!
'illegal' doesnt have any meaning in california
West Coast in general
Nope it doesn't. I can't take people in California seriously if they believe this nonsense.
Just say Migrant fireworks lol
More immigrants is a good thing, and they vote left too💕🔥 since conservatives want them ☠️
Damn right
They prefer to be called "Undocumented Fireworks".. thank you
Haha 😂
😂😂😂
Migrant fireworks looking for a better light
@@silentmajority8365 Looks like migrant fireworks are greatly replacing local fireworks, they keep coming in more and more and they CANT be stopped💕, and most of the migrant fireworks explode left too🔥👍, since the right side LITERALLY wants the migrant fireworks to be dead or gone in any way, none to even be Lit
I was watching a livestream from LAX July 4th and the fireworks were amazing. There was also alot of heavy traffic by the airport when people were leaving. People in LA like their fireworks.🎆🎇🧨✨
Nothing illegal about being a Patriot
Or a Zebra. Good point though.
This is also true. 🦓
Does speaking English needed 😂😂😂
I'd bet dollars to donuts that 90% of the folks setting off those fireworks couldn't pass a 4th grade civics test. Murica!
Patriot / Facist in reality.
My favorite pasttime is americans ignore stupid laws
Those who experience their house or business going up in flames don't think it's a stupid law.
Or those who lose a finger or an eye. Emergency rooms all over the country brace themselves every July for the flood of fireworks-related injuries.
@@tudorjason Guess you hate Americans FREEDOMS lmao. You MUST be a Democrat immigrant?
and what do you know? absolutely nothing happened. because the goal is total control. ironic considering the occasion. maybe they need to be reminded what july 4th means.
@@cagneybillingsley2165 And the dumbocrats will still vote for Gavin Newsome lol
This is America, independence day, get your bans out of here
It’s time to ban your fireworks given they are getting louder and louder and you people are shooting them off for 4 or more hours a night for almost a week or longer
The more bans, the more we tell em 🖕🏽.
Tell that to Texas and Florida.
Loads of bans in those states!
Fr we give 0 Fs 😂
@@NottDuque you’re the problem with society
It’s not 95% illegal! It’s 95% professional patriots . Remember the battle of Athens 1946!
Yeah!🎉

Your oh so fine USA (lack of) education is showing.
@@ronbelanger4113*You’re
Remember it?! I started it.
I imagine the whole nation looks like that from space.
True! We sit on our porch and have a 360 view of neighbors setting off fireworks for hours but peak time was around 10 p.m. - it was beautiful
Flew cross country about 10 years ago and it was about a six hour show.
The Earth is flat
Ignore guy above me he’s either really restarted or he’s ragebaiting
Imagine knowing popping fireworks is actually representing for a God and is known for sacrificing
4th of July has been like this for decades in SoCal, yet every year the news acts like it's some new crazy thing they've never seen before..
Exactly
Isn't this going on all over America? This can't be unique to Los Angeles. Bet Texas had a great show.
@@wjrasmussen666 Sure, but SoCal alone is densely populated with millions of people, so fireworks are more chaotic. I'm sure parts of Texas look similar but isn't as dense as SoCal.
In 2020 they were going of for 2 days straight on the 4th
@@10MM-MAGAMAN-420 They did. I felt this year was a little bit light on the FW.
Thank God fireworks are illegal. We don't have to worry about them.
Because nothing like celebrating 'America's independence and freedom' like banning things you don't like.
Lmao I just laughed out loud
it's a big deterrent and it makes them less accessible and more expensive.
They also come with free credit cards, housing in posh hotels, drivers licenses, and voting ballots.
😂😂😂😂
Fire works are not what you should be concerned with, look at the murders, rape, and theft which you could do something about.
you look like a suspect
Fr
“I bet you were launching illegal fireworks huh”
no its not the fireworks they are concerned about its the wild fires that those fireworks can set and the millions of dollars in damage and cost of fighting them that they are worried about
@@a-love-supremist nah too little melanin
Like Malcolm X once stated "They sell you the liquor, then give you a ticket or lock you up for drinking it"
False equivalency These items bought illegally
Wrong, They are legal to buy in Las Vegas just not legal to take home to LA
I get what is being said, however the government has never given or bought me alcohol. Even if they did, if I was over served and drive after, well fair enough.
@@samanthawilliams5497 i can assure you, theyre illegal in Las Vegas too
@@samanthawilliams5497 Wrong, taking them across the border is illegal.
Undocumented fireworks
😂
“Asylum seeking fireworks”💥
I've never heard somebody so appalled that people don't follow stupid laws.
Those aren't illegal fireworks that's potassium nitrate identifying as a gas.
😂now being patriot is illegal
Bad law is a law that everyone breaks...
@CrabFiles Only criminals think that laws are bad.
@@CoopyKatnot true, learn your history. Bad laws exist, and are often repealed or amended. Silly laws should definitely ignored, and there are some.
@@CoopyKat Next you will be passing racial laws...
The law, is an instrument of political power as defined by the US constitution....
@@creatrixZBD tea party
Insurance companies do not care if you think the law is bad. It protects their scam.
Fireworks residue??? You mean smoke?
Nope
One of the two main ingredients in most non-professional fireworks is nitrogen (actually nitrocellulose); most of which does not burn up. It then adds nitrogen to the atmosphere, thereby seeding thunderstorms
@@ronaldckrausejr7762 the main component of fireworks aren't nitrocelloulose

"Residual fireworks residue"? 😂😂 Is that what they teach in Journalism these days? - It's called SMOKE, dude!
Lol, was thinking the same. Just call it smoke dude, why complicate things?
Weren't they live?
Ye it annoys me when they try sounding so smart wit little shi
What if smoke is racist? It’s better say residue… or trace amount.
Trace amount of undocumented explosives found in a cloud hovering over LA
How is that for a headline?
All these fireworks and yet not fires. Looks like most people are using them responsibly 🤷🏻♀️
Yessss! We spent a lot of money on them. Cleaned up our mess and bought several fire extinguishers.
you mean got lucky since we humans can't control the wind or were it blows those firework embers after it goes airborne
@@topgun1457 honestly taking classes would help at lest somewhat but ya during somewhat dry season, i won't buy willows or anything that has a tail or shoots at a angle but if it doesn't rain for a week or it's super dry then i won't.
it's not 100% fires it's people who do crap things with them
Homeless crime, carjacking's. murders on the Metro yet... Fireworks are your focus...yep.
Nicely said, forget about the murders going up and the small businesses closing up all thanks to Newsome, let’s condemn the fireworks. These “news” workers are out of touch, they won’t do their job. Journalists are the voice of the silent and they are supposed to uncover what government is covering up to allow us to make decisions based on policies being made not align with them. What an embarrassing bunch of lowlifes.
I think it is the wildfires that is the reason why.
@@babecat2000 You mean those things that happen in the forests there every year because of all that dry heat? Not sure that fireworks in the city (one of the biggest metro areas in the nation, at that) are gonna make much of a difference, bud. Here in about a month tops, all us living in California's hat are gonna be living in a smokescreen and fireworks haven't a thing to do with it the vast majority of the time (barring something like a gender reveal party, of course).
Mexicans love fireworks and the 4th of July
Don't need to be Mexican to blow up fireworks homie
Drink and fire works responsibly
I heard the fireworks from Mexico are super loud
Nah they just love fireworks. They set them off outside of the 4th with their non assimilating anti American ways.
Yea they complain about the U.S then act like patriots...annoying bunch
This is illegal, what about open border
no is not so you can't not take that away
thus the "they're not illegal, they're undocumented fireworks" remarks above.
@@jjc4577so you're expecting someone to have read another comment? Is that really what I'm seeing right now. This world turns more clownish everyday. Congratulations on contributing to that clown world

Bingo! And a feeble old man in charge of the briefcase.
"Illegal" fireworks but "legal" immigrants???
😂 I know !!! We found that word again
"Undocumented Fireworks" is their preferred name.
@@Zippy-ev5vc I should make myself illegal so the government actually helps me
@@nicklibby3784 Their preferred pronouns are "burn/it"
Yup because the only illegals here came from Europe.
i always wondered why make it illegal if no one will listen
Time to legalize illegal fireworks. If California legalized marijuana, fireworks should all be legal. If illegal aliens are no longer illegal, then illegal fireworks should be legalized.
Fox didn’t even call them “illegal”… y’all worried about illegal fireworks but not illegal immigrants! 🙄
It’s not illegal immigrants committing crimes. Lose the racism
I had a similar comment like wow this is the first time I’ve heard this word on CBS 😂😩
Underrated perspective
The propaganda machine would call them undocumented fireworks 😂
They would just call them undocumented fireworks 😂
This is the most American thing I’ve seen from LA.
I don't know why it comes as a surprise. It happens every year and there's nothing the authorities can do about it. Happy 4th of July!!!!
You'd be surprised how easily it can be stop
@@NOT-A-MonolithDid you not watch the video? You ain't stopping that!
@@NOT-A-Monolith I'll believe it when I see it.
MURICA!! 🇺🇸🎆
@NOT-A-Monolith
You'd be surprised how many cops actually care... Fireworks are illegal in places like LA and NY. And yet people have been lighting them for years with little to no repercussions. I have yet to see the local govs actually try and enforce those rules. And TBH it's a waste of manpower and resources, when they have bigger fish to fry.
Sounds like World War 3 here in the SF Valley.
I’m here too😂 surprising my dogs are chill. I appreciate that this area does keep it to one day. When I lived in palms, they started in JUNE and ended in AUGUST 😩
In SF 4th of July starts on the 4th of June.
If only they were this concerned about illegal aliens in California
Those is just migrant fireworks
Good👍
Those fireworks are just newcomers.
No fireworks are illegal! 🤣
I hereby declare that the term 'illegal' shall be stricken from our vocabulary!
This makes me proud to be an American! 🎉
Happy fourth 🇺🇸🇺🇸🫡🫡
Government just sitting there looking at all that potential tax revenue getting blown up in the sky and crying
It’s only illegal if you get caught
also if the cops care enough 😅
Ever since covid I love watching the piblic disobey the firework ban😂
It's ever year, nothing new, police won't do nothing, next story...🙄
Yup cops came to my old neighborhood they didn’t do anything lol while everyone including me doing fireworks
@@vce.john1734 Nice
FTP 😂😂😂
I mean, put yourself in their position.. What can they do? Travel the city and lock up tens of thousands who, for the most part, are celebrating with family?
Is it illegal? Sure. Though in 2024 many officers of the LAPD tend to act more like humans, rather than robots. They tend to focus on higher priorities during the 4th. Like actual damage or possible fires from illegal fireworks, among other things.
It sounded like a war zone for 5 hours here in Orange County
It was a nightmare for my dog. You must be north OC.
Absolute joke of a news cast
Why do we watch these fools
@@blade_runna6057 CZcams recommends it. Most news channels are going to hell unfortunately. Pray for them. GOD hates the cowardly.
As a native, this is part of the LA culture. It's always been like this and always will. You'll never experience anything like it in other parts of the US. I personally love it. Cities will always warn us against using illegal fireworks for safety and liability reasons. The $1k fine is really only for people that are caught being stupid or obnoxious, or using using illegal fireworks in a city that doesn't allow any fireworks at all like Long Beach.
This has only been for about the last 15 years. We were amazed the 1st year this happened.
God you LA people take pride in anything they do there. Oh it's jus the culture. Stfu lol. Everyone light up the sky in EVERY STATE. EVEN SAN DIEGO AND RIVER SIDE
@10MM-MAGAMAN-420 I don't think it's a good idea anywhere. It's devastating to the elderly, sick & animals. The fact that it's illegal & allowed to the degree it is.. is pathetic.
Ahh, yes, LA the only city in America where fire works are illegal, but people still come together to light them off. Yes, you definitely won't see this any other city in the whole country
@@10MM-MAGAMAN-420 LA Basin in general. I’d include riverside too tbh. My point is that you’ll never find such a densely populated area all firing off fireworks like this. You’ll for sure find people firing mortars in other states but most other cities are not as dense and close to each other as the ones in LA. New York maybe but I’m not sure if they go off like we do.
These are only illegal because some idiot here in California says so….another stupid law here in Cali.
Dont like it?? Move to texass or floriduh!! Its that simple folks!! We dont need snowflakes, karens, and most of all magats!!
The law is made for the people, not the people for the law. This just tells me how out of touch the 'lawmakers' are with the folks they claim to serve.
Typical demoncrats. Insane.
What a surprise this happnes every year
This has been going on for years. We'd all go to a friend's house to watch the street fireworks people had bought in Mexico. The police would cruise by but never do anything. It was fun & I don't think I recall anyone getting hurt or any houses catching fire. Anyway---old news!
Thank you...cops rolled by people lighting fireworks and they waved and kept going. 4th of July is fireworks, food, and fun in LA
Illegal is such a common thing in LA 😂
So is rape and paying prostitutes hush money before an election..We dont care about that right? Rich privileged folk dont count..
I hope Newsom is enjoying the illegal fireworks. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
FGN
He is👍
He will be the President when Biden drops out and Trump goes to jail for a few months....... Democrats want Biden gone and want Trump in jail. The Illuminatis, MK Ultra and the reptilians had this planned.....
He should be proud since he started this back in 2020.
Yuuup..We are a fun state! We love our state! If you dont like it, there is texass and floriduh..Go enjoy those bozos aboot and deathsentence..Maybe you can join uncle tim or gym boy in ohellno..Those pos dont come close to Awsome Newsome!! 🤣👉🪼
Oh the horror.... people celebrating the 4th
Celebrating freedom deemed illegal. What are we celebrating again?
every home in California burning down due to wildfire started by fireworks apparently
illegal or not, they looks cool from aerial view
Los Feliz is going off!! 🎆 Happy 4th of July!!
It has not stopped for like two hours straight I'm in the same area
Governor be like you got firework money add a 25% tax to something
How about instead of illegal use the term having fun
People complaining they’re broke but seem to have plenty of money for those expensive illegal fireworks.
They are cheaper than the safe and sane fireworks 😂
My friends crossed the open border and got tons of cheap fireworks. Maybe Biden should close the border and build a wall to keep illegal immigrants out if he really cared about illegal fireworks.😉
for $400 you can buy 24 shots of artillery shells and 2 big family packs 4 ft tall of fireworks while a single family pack of fireworks made of pure fountains cost about $600 - $1,000 at TNT stands guess what people are going to go with? the cheaper and better fireworks🤣 what a shocker
I'm sure a lot of those fireworks are being paid for by welfare aka taxpayers' money.
Yet they need EBT to buy their kid some food 😂😂😂
Why people hating on our fireworks? 💥 lmfao
I know right, stupid done show ppl
Even worse, for whatever reason, down in OC the fireworks started around 3pm when it was still daylight. And it has been non-stop ever since. Crazy.
Maybe focus on the real issues happening in SoCal
the whole city is going to jail 💀
Imagine hearing Stage 4 Nuclear Rocket Firework in Helicopter 💀
And no fires
It’s all concrete
And there shouldn't be.
a tree caught fire in my neighborhood in lake view terrace but it didn’t spread thankfully
ITS EVERYWHERE
Why don't they put up a sign that says "Fireworks Free Zone" that should take care of it, right?
The cat got out of the bag during the covid lock down and I doubt that it will ever be reigned in.
Juan ever hear of Illegal aliens or Fireworks?
There will be even more and MORE fireworks like this in the future, they will replace the old boring local fireworks🔥
If an illegal lights off fireworks, is that a double illegal?? 🤔
That’s paralegal! 😂
But, they are "just mostly peaceful' 🤪 fireworks.
Leave it to California to complain about fireworks on the 4th of July .
Good to see there’s still some rebels against tyrannical laws.
FJB
Dont tell our government that theyll tax us to use the streets too 😂
Santa Ana went so crazy , we had Arizona fireworks 😍🩷
My city SA was on an poppin!! The people BBQuing and familes together having a good old time..I wish I could stop time..VIVA AMERICA!!
MERICA!
Undocumented Fireworks😂
Yesssss!😂🎉🎉🎉🎉
Not going to lie but bro said “a little sliver” like 2 years ago with the exact same line. 😅

NGL, that fog mixed with fireworks makes that area look like a literal Warzone 🤣
You can't go on about your freedoms, then restrict people's freedoms to celebrate.
?
So beautiful
shoplifting is legal but celebrating our independence is illegal?
Legalize fireworks just like weed. The people are still using it might as well profit off them
Illegal its time to make it LEGAL. YOU legalize marijuana.
@J0EFERNY No - they should NOT be legalized. The low-lifes that buy and use these fireworks cause fires all over Los Angeles every year and they don't give a damn. People who think this should be legal are also criminals.
You can't trust idiots to be pyrotechnics
its the weed bro
@@hermeskino711You can't trust idiots being on drugs either.
White people neighborhood (rich neighborhood people with class neighborhood) no illegal fireworks. Mexican neighborhood illegal fireworks till 3 A.M.
Mexicans and Central Americans just want to blow s up and dont care even about U.S. history 😂😂😂
Only the rich kids in the rich neighborhoods will blow up the fireworks.
I understand the fire hazard they have and are worried but don't ban fireworks on the 4th. That's just unpatriotic.
You cant stop freedom
Let us be free.
🪨 🎸 🤘
God Bless the true PATRIOTS of LA!
Except they are not patriots.
Certain people - I won’t say who - just love fireworks.
It has nothing to do with the 4th of July and celebration of Independence Day.
The one night the whole county gets together, mad union. That's how humans should be living, something to get the people together
This is nothing. Go to any town in Kentucky the week of July 4th. You’re gonna hear fireworks day and night the entire week.
That’s called FREEDOM
BOOM!!! MAGA TRUMP 2024 HAPPY 4TH OF JULY
The Supreme Court just awarded immunity to anyone who fired illegal fireworks on July 4th. 😂
Look at that freedom in the sky. I dare you to try to find every single one of them. I bet the police will never be able to do that.
Looks pretty American to me 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Almost as much as Las Vegas neighborhoods
They literally harbor criminals but fireworks on the 4th are a no no
It’s just fucken fireworks it’s called “4th of July” for a fucken reason it’s “FREEDOM”
I feel terrible for all the animals suffering through this😢
They'll be alright
I go over to u haul or Home Depot every year and buy a decent size box.
Lay it on its side and put a blanket and Bluetooth speaker in it.
When the fireworks start my pup goes in there and feels more comfortable.
Plicketyplunk, no difference than a bad thunderstorm
Water is wet
the illegal fireworks are a far better view than display shows
Wow! Everyone is so happy celebrating the 4th! Very wholesome
