        Considering the amount of toxic smoke I would say it's not that controlled.

        Now tell people what chemicals are in that smoke. Is it toxic? What kind of health problems can it cause?

        "Controlled" and "pops" seem to be euphemisms to keep people ignorant of the toxins being spewed. Authorities need to work for the public.
