Even where lead shot is still legal, do you really want to be eating game you shot with lead pellets in it? Not me. I have seen the lead capsules go from the wine bottles. Even my Wild Turkey whiskey for a time had a lead capsule. Now it's been replaced.

I hear it's on the ballot. As just about everybody with any interest in smoking pot is already smoking pot, I doubt it will make any difference in anything other than the paranoia level if it passes. -- Jim Pennino
