Technically gunpowder is a low explosive, not a high explosive, but I certainly think that selling them to the public should have been stopped long ago.
You can see much bettern fireworks at organised displays and there's so much less danger of someone being injured, let alone (as happened down here on Bonfire Night) people setting up an impromptu display at the end of the road!
Also you can now get Quiet Fireworks which makes things less stressful for animals.
This is also true for PTSD sufferers and, IMO, these fireworks should be the only ones available. If you were near QA Hospital around November 5th it was like World War III out there
