Fireworks vendor says rights were violated after being told to take down 'Karen' sign Fireworks season may be over, but a feud between a fireworks vendor and a neighbor continues in Washington, Iowa. Author: Local 5 News Updated: 10:03 PM CDT July 12, 2021 KCRG TV-9 reported a sign war between a Washington fireworks vendor and a nearby neighbor last month, and that fight ended up in front of the city council. “I was tearing down my fireworks tent, and I found the “My Neighbor’s a Karen” sign, and it reminded me of when Council Member Steven Gault told me to take down the sign at a council meeting,” said David Robbs, owner of World’s Cheapest Fireworks in Washington.
