How can they possibly determine that the lead affecting the birds is the same lead found in ammunition?

Did they find a bird with lead in its stomach?

There's phenomenal amounts of Lead within a few steps of you right now. Certain paints are large culprits. Trucks with a bedliner, most have lead in it. Lead is everywhere. Maybe we should remove it from the millions of products that people use everyday? Let's talk about ground leeching from city pollution. No, Im sure its from the rare bullet or shotgun pellet that actually remains out in the wild. Not to mention 'signature' is not definitive. Lead, is Lead. Chem 101.

Wow lead is lead, great speach! You must be a genious snapperhead. If only lead were always pure... Guess what, you can know the origin of lead by the impurities it contains. Typical impurities found in particular products can give you a damn good idea where the lead came from. That would be chem 201 to you I guess.

And I bet that if you had to hunt to supplement what food you could afford to feed those children you'd want something with a high rate of success to do it with. I'm sorry for the birds, really i am, and i hate to see any life wasted. However, when it comes down to it, my family comes before a bird... Where i am from, families actually deal with that stuff... don't know what neck of the woods you're from, but consider: most people probably have different extenuating circumstances than you.
