The 3rd Crash Report shows aticfx32.dll - AMD Inc. Radeon DirectX 11 Driver - as the cause of that crash.

Check for updated video drivers, and if that doesn't fix it try disabling Hardware Acceleration in Firefox. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration#w_turning-off-hardware-acceleration

Hi, Try to start firefox in compatibility mode. If this doesn't work, try to run it as administrator. If the problem continues let me know. Thank you.
