You make a good point. Which can also be made about any form of freedom as soon as it encroaches on someone else's comfort.

Ignoring the obvious nuance, a loud concert or a horror movie are also not something law enforcement will do anything against but it could terrorize people as well.

    If a loud concert or horror movie popped up next door and rattled the houses of an entire neighborhood from 10pm to 2am, I'm pretty sure law enforcement would do something about it.

    If only it were once a year. This year, people started on the 28th of fucking June, and didn't stop until the goddamn 6th.

    If it actually was contained to the 4th, I would be fine with it, but getting woken up by an explosion every night at 1:30am for a week straight, it gets real old, real fast.
