I wouldn't be optimistic: between the chances of some venue ignoring safety codes, and the chance of 1 in 250 people igniting some fireworks at a celebration... I'd expect this kind of stuff to keep repeating over and over.
I agree entirely, and that is basically the angle I am going for. I feel like spreading this around as much as possible will serve not as a deterrent, but as an informational event that perhaps folks will remember when they see the fire displays come out. We become complacent so easily tho.
