Bullet 'Health' Fears Dry Up Ammo Supplies
Obama’s ‘green’ procurement plan creating ‘de facto ban’
WND
WASHINGTON – At the same time federal agencies like the Department of Homeland Security are buying up ammunition stockpiles around the country and shipping large quantities overseas for use by the military, the Obama administration is now pushing states to mandate “green ammunition” that is free of lead.
The result? Ammo supplies for law-abiding citizens have dried up in recent months, and experts expect it to get worse.
“The potential exists for a de facto ammunition ban,” says Ryan Bronson of the Minnesota-based National Shooting Sports Foundation.
Some sources even describe the developments as a conspiracy to limit Americans’ Second Amendment right.
Unprecedented ammunition shortages have been in headlines for months, with stores often limiting purchases to one or two boxes, if they have the desired caliber at all. Often retail shelves that used to hold abundant ammunition supplies display nothing but dust.
Now it appears the developments creating that unwelcome convergence include a campaign to move toward non-toxic, non-lead bullets because of the health concerns associated with lead, the mass purchases government is known to make, and even the shipments of supplies overseas.
Health concerns
Sources say health-care advocates are arguing that lead bullet fragments, especially in game such as venison, are neurotoxins that can harm children and developing fetuses.
Even the U.S. Geological Survey has had something to say about lead-based ammunition. It estimates that nationwide there are 400,000 pieces of lead shot per acre in areas where game is hunted, which can potentially be eaten or washed into waterways.
The USGS further claims 650,000 metric tons of lead were fired off in 2012, the second largest use of lead besides storage batteries.
Supporters of traditional lead ammunition, however, say that there is no study to show any significant reduction in wildlife populations from lead poisoning nor danger to people who eat game that has been killed either from birdshot or more powerful rounds.

Time to use what you got or forever live on your knees.
This president, who was born in africa, can’t seem to kill the 2nd amendment so he’s doing the next best thing; he’s making it impossible for you to obtain any ammunition. Go ahead, by all the over priced guns you want then use them for garden stakes because there’s no ammo!
No he’s killing it right. He just hasn’t gotten the votes for legislation at least not yet, but may soon if it rears it ugly head again. But think not that these Zimmerman riots aren’t part of some agend youve’ got another thing coming.
Think not too that you now hav eot watch your neighbores like hawks so they don’t snitch you off your sadly mistaken unless your one of them!
You have got to be kidding health concerns.Lets see fluoride in toothpaste,gmo foods,airforce spraying chemtrails,aspertame,arsenic in chicken feed,…. wow and now our own saudi president is worried about lead now thats funny. This message is to the elite puppet masters. you know its all falling apart for you. We know who you are and you know the truth is coming out thats why you want the gun control. NWO section 20-1 take heed your time has come.
no different than execution of Agenda 21.
You go on the air and say “Americans can live anywhere they want. we don’t want to limit folks ability to make their own choices” then you make gasoline $5 a gallon. and food twice what it was 5 years ago. And heating oil and gas four times what it was 10 years ago. Then you tax driving under “green policy” such that driving a mile costs you $2. Your 30 mile commute just became a $100 a day cost instead of $5. you cant afford to drive to your job. So you move into the city. Agenda 21 goal acheived. they didnt legislate you had to move into a city. but you had to move into a city.
Same with bullets here. They aren’t just buying them to use them on people. They are emptying the market ~ so when they ban lead completely ~ there is no inventory in the pipeline for people to scoop up. They turn off the ammunition supply by banning led. and like Chris Rock joked about ~ Guns are cheap. We can all buy a gun. but bullets will cost $5,000 a round.
agenda achieved.
do you see it yet? they are smiling in your face while you dig your own grave with the Obama brand shovel they handed you and told you to dig for Obama. Animal farm 101
Actually, by law, the EPA is not allowed to regulate lead bullets. Go look it up.
