Colbert Report Extolls the Virtues of the Fireworks Vendor
Colbert presents us a Real American Hero:

The proprietors of firecracker stands. God bless 'em. Bless their hearts.



"I'll be damned of some cop thinks they're gonna take my fireworks." You tell 'em Chowder Head.

If you've ever seen an old shake roof go up in flames in an instant when hit by a bottle rocket, you might not be so positive about fireworks.

Ugh. I live near this town. White trash Mecca. It being a border town in tax-free, "live-free-or-die" New Hampshire--it's always sold Massachusetts' forbidden fruit. Cheap cigarettes, cheap booze, fireworks, tattoos. The Nuclear Plant adds to the ambiance. I guess I should be grateful there's only one strip joint.

I'm mostly positive about fireworks when I get to see children and drunken patriots handling them unsafely (or near old wooden buildings).

Count your blessings Tom.

The video isn't working for me... so sad...

I'm registered to buy fireworks at a place in Pennsylvania and the shop has an actual red velvet rope separating the big shit from the sparklers.
