It is all about the $$. Lead is cheap and they sell lots of it. Alternatives are expensive and their market will suffer.
The only thing wrong with that pot is thatban lead and you ban ammo
Hmmm you may be on to something....but the NRA thought the same thing. It was 'shot' down last week. The EPA announced that they do not have the authority to regulate ammo. Some crazy radical members of Congress specifically exempted ammo from the EPA's jurisdiction. The petition did include ammo.Hmmm... ban lead and you essentially ban ammo. That's what they really want to go after.
Reasoning and doing only what is warranted would, in fact, require an organism to think....
I could see the reasoning banning lead below certain sizes like the lead shot ban. Banning larger peices does not seem to be warrented.
