In Texas, it is generally illegal to discharge fireworks within city limits. Most cities in Texas have ordinances prohibiting the use of fireworks within their boundaries, and violators can face fines or other penalties. However, regulations on fireworks may vary by city, so it is essential to check local ordinances before using fireworks. It is worth noting that fireworks are allowed in unincorporated areas of the county, subject to specific regulations, and it is always important to follow safety guidelines when using fireworks.

Did you know many laws have been created specific to the Christmas holiday? In the United Kingdom, the 1831 Game Act still stands, prohibiting anyone to “…kill or take any game, or use any dog, gun, net or other engine or instrument for the purpose of killing or taking any game, on a Sunday or Christmas Day.” The U.S. Supreme Court case Lynch v. Donnelly ruled that any religious holiday display on government property needed to also include secular elements. The case is often referred to as “Three Reindeer Rule,” because if you include three wise men, you might need to include three reindeer as well.
