It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

Proposed regulations could affect hunting.

The National Shooting Sports Foundation is urging MI residents to contact the EPA to oppose a petition filed earlier this month by the Center for Biological Diversity to ban traditional ammo,citing the Toxic Substance Control Act of 1976,in which Congress exempted ammo from being regulated as a "Toxic substance".CBD states a danger to raptors such as eagles,eating unrecovered game and humans eating game shot with traditional ammo.The NSSF states there is no scientific evidence and from 1981-2006 the eagle recovery has increased 724%,and the federal excise tax that manufacturers pay on the ammo(11%) is a primary source of wildlife conservation funding.The guy Obama put in office to interpret laws and create regulations(I forget his name,but he's a socialist)probably has something to do with this no doubt,and the Center for Biological Diversity(diversity is a socialist byword)is certainly not diverse considering the fact they are trying to ban something that does no harm whatsoever(can you spell anti-hunting?).The NSSF recomends we email,write or call Lisa P. Jackson,Administrator,U.S EPA,1200 pennsylvania ave.,NW, Washington,DC 20460.Call 202-501-4700;fax 202-501-1450 or email jackson.lisa@epa.gov .You can also contact Steve Owens,Assistant Administrator,Prevention,Pesticides&Toxic Substances U.S EPA, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave.,NW,Washington,DC 20460. Call 202-564-2902;fax 202-546-0801 or email owens.steve@epa.gov. Morons in government listening to morons who want to ban our stuff! When will it end? November I hope! God Bless! Jeff.
