The Riverton spectators came to see some controlled xplosives, but some of them say uncontrolled xplosives as well.

Some found the bikers' words appalling; others found Ennis's behavior appalling.

The bikers -- namely, Biker #1 and Biker #2 -- sat themselves down on the grass behind Ennis, Alma, and the girls.

"Got you a extra blanket I'll roll up out here and grab forty winks, ride out at first light."  "Freeze your ass off when that fires dies down. Better off sleeping in the tent." "Doubt I'll feel nothin." But he staggered under canvas, pulled his boots off, snored on the ground cloth for a while, woke Jack with the clacking of his jaw. [Story]

71    EXT: RIVERTON, WYOMING: PARK: FOURTH OF JULY: NIGHT: 1966:     71

We see a huge billboard advertising July 4, 1966 fireworks' display.

Ennis, Alma, Alma Jr. and Francine.  Alma spreads a blanket on the ground, preparing to settle her family in to watch the fireworks.     [2004 screenplay]

"E" is excessive

By her reaction, Alma thought Ennis's reaction to the idiot bikers was excessive.

"G" is gentleness

Ennis's rough treatment of the bikers is in stark contrast to the gentleness he shows Jenny just moments before.

Gentleness:

=aside=
The examining Ennis appears to be giving the top of Jenny's head is recognizable as a typical parent's cradle cap scrutiny.
