EVERY time this issue comes up, it goes the same way. People get windy about science, politics, nationalities, and try to imprees the world with what they know about things that have little to do with the lead shot bans. WHEN lead shot is banned, the blame will lie right here among us. I asked, some time ago for some people to volunteer as a "watch" group here in the plains states (Iowa included) and to help draft an exemption wording for older guns. The response was underwhelming-zero.
