1) what's with you ANTI-HUNTERS? by Anonymous Citizen on September 7, 2007
were you all born with under-used brains?

the lead i use kills birds almost instantly, i have yet to see the FLOCKS OF LEAD POISONED BIRDS flocking around michigan, can you show me one?

neither can the federal government.

now, either come up with VERIFIABLE information, from reliable, verifiable sources, or stop saying that lead is a problem with birds. even birds know the difference between lead shot and rocks.

they HAVE been around for a few million years longer than WE have.
