We deposit tons of lead every year and have it tested every time we mine the lead for reclamation. After 55 some odd years of shooting on these grounds, there has been no damage to the environment, not one indicator of lead leaching into the watertable. Baltimore is known for having some of the best water quality in the country. They have not been successful in banning firearms thanks to the 2nd amendment so they go about it by slowly banning the ammo that we use. Question authority my friends- they know not what they do.
i think I see the problem- you reffer to science and reason,

the new generation of "environmentalists" use lies and panicked emotion

hence your last two statements (unfortunately - I do think at least their leaders know exactly what they are doing - as they say "something wicked this way comes"
