Is Georgetown the only DC neighborhood where residents can't tell the difference between fireworks and gunfire?

Girl. Nope - I have told myself every time I hear a loud noise “it is a firework, it is a firework, etc.”. It’s gotten to the point now, at times, I need someone to tell me the truth.

Signed, A person with one nerve and gunshots - all to common - wont take it!

no i'm just kind of an idiot from a small canadian town where both gunshots (hunters, people in the woods shooting at trees because ??) and fireworks (constantly picking the remains up on my walks when i'm there) are heard at weird hours and I can never tell the difference there and probably won't here unless it's super close by or I can see it

sorry!
