governments tend to discourage celebratory firings though. I've read scores of tragedies at weddings in parkistan or the philipines or whereever where someone accidentally gets shot.

If we were occupied by another nation, I probably wouldn't be dumb enough to risk being shot by shooting off fireworks, or firearms.
Our troops over there need to look out for themselves first, and everyone else second. As horrible as some of you may think this sounds, our troops lives are more important to our government than the lives of people who may or may not be attacking them.
