A massive truck loaded with illegal fireworks blew up Wednesday in Los Angeles.
According to Desmond Shaw, LAPD officers decided to detonate the illegal fireworks right on sight, and it didn’t go well. (SLIDESHOW: These Women On Instagram Hate Wearing Clothes)

As someone who witnessed a bomb squad situation not that long ago, I’m pretty sure that this isn’t what the experts would recommend. (SLIDESHOW: This Blonde Bombshell Might Be The Hottest Model On The Internet)
More bomb squad units are arriving in Arlington after a search warrant was executed. Area remains locked down. A crowd is starting to gather, which seems interesting given the risks involved. pic.twitter.com/P5bLg1ScxU

Who thought detonating a truck full of explosives would be a great idea? Seriously, who thought this would go over well? (SLIDESHOW: 60 Times Abigail Ratchford Wore Almost Nothing)
These guys know how fireworks operate, right? There’s generally some explosive powder involved and that causes things to blow up.
Seems fairly obvious to me!
Next time, maybe split the fireworks up and deal with them on a much smaller scale. That way, you don’t set off the equivalent of a small bomb in a residential area.
