Allen Ray McGrew, 41, was found laying in the road. He put a firework on his head, and it exploded while on his head, causing massive head injuries, officials said.
His wife, Paige McGrew, said her husband had been drinking since 6 p.m.
See, Florida? It’s not just you. Americans get drunk and do insanely stupid shit everywhere else in the country too.
Tax money is generally not “wasted”. It goes towards services for the state. So, yeah - I would not mind if there were additional taxes placed on fireworks to go into the state’s coffers, to come back to me as road work or universities.
You may not call this sort of thing wasting taxpayer dollars, but I sure do.
