19. I've seen aggressive enforcement of fireworks bans in past years.

Not just the police, but the fire departments across the state, who do also have legal enforcement powers, will come out, confiscate your fireworks and hit you with a big fine if they catch you.

And I imagine this year, they won't play around at all.
