Why did they do it in your neighbourhood? Because they sure didn’t want to do it in their neighbourhood.
I mean if the containment vessel was so safe they should have been able to transport it in the vessel….. to somewhere safer to safely detonate it. So Obviously even they don’t feel the vessel is safe.
Certainly could have done smaller batches as well.
What fools.

I think that's overcomplicating it. A regular person would generally assume a fancy bomb disposal truck like that would easily be able to handle 'a bunch of fireworks'. I reckon these officers had the same mindset, even though they're supposed to know what they're doing.
It's not obvious they didn't transport it because they thought it was unsafe to do so. The more obvious explanation is that they thought it'd be harmless, which is why they also endangered themselves along with everyone else.

Not that any of the LAPD's lies make sense, but "it was unsafe to transport" was the reason they gave for blowing it up in the neighborhood.
Of course it's somehow "unsafe to transport" while being perfectly safe for an unarmored officer to toss it into the truck bare handed.
