Respect your neighbours

I am writing to people who like to shoot off fireworks or guns in residential areas. Some people think Foreman Flats, Blackburn, Salmon Valley, etc is the country. It is to some extent.

Some people think Foreman Flats, Blackburn, Salmon Valley, etc is the country.

It is to some extent. However, when people do this kind of activity, animals become very agitated. Horses run through fences, dogs run away, people phone the police. Can't these people find a remote area to do this?

Just because you're in the country doesn't mean you don't affect your neighbours. The least you could do is post a note on the mailboxes to say what date you intend to do this. Please consider your neighbours. You may need their help someday. No one wants to ruin your fun. Just asking for some respect.
