I bought one of these yesterday just to see what all of you think. Its a fountain firework and on the top of the box it reads:
[i]"In lighting this fountain you are not reliving the tragedy,but remembering the many innocent lives that were lost."[/i]

What do you think? Sound off!

They should have left out the towers picture.
The flag and "Never forget 9-11" would have been nice.

Black Cat sucks compared to THUNDERBOMBS.. Now that is a FireCracker, Louder, Rapped tighter, Fast fuses for blowing up in your hand.  I grew up on Thunderbombs... That is the only firecracker for me.

Yep. I was thinking "no big deal" until I saw the photo.

Pure opportunism. I wouldn't buy it.

Exploitation...and in very poor taste.  The placement of the pic of the towers is awful. Makes it look like flames and showers of sparks coming from the top of the towers.

Un Friken Real...This is like the Company that made the Glock 17 and 19 Hero model with FDNY and NYPD along with a picture on the slide.

Not a cent went to the Families children and widows fund. Then they have the Gall to sell it for I think $300.00. There was a Topic on GlockTalks about.

The last thing I want to see is Sparklers of Firecrackers going off with pictures of the WTC on the box. MY day was going pretty good till now. Why didn't they just put a picture of the Jet flying into the Tower on it also
