Well, it's bullshit. Here's what the NRA-ILA, which is no friend of this president, said about it:
Doe Run made significant efforts to reduce lead emissions from the smelter, but in 2008 the federal Environmental Protection Agency issued new National Ambient Air Quality Standards for lead that were 10 times tighter than the previous standard. Given the new lead air quality standard, Doe Run made the decision to close the Herculaneum smelter.I have bolded the critical piece of information.
Now, Class, who can tell me who was the President of the United States in 2008?
You, Johnny Wingnut, care to answer the question?

And for extra points if they get it right in the November 2008 elections who became president elect to become the president in January 2009.
Hopefully that helps the with clues.
mutter mutter, short memories about criminals.
Eck!
I read about the change to non-lead ammo and shudder. I have already seen plastic tipped hunting rounds but what about Black powder shooters? Are they going to make .50 cal Hawken rounds out of plastic now? And, what about my Beeman Webly airgun?
