Matt, no offense taken. The ad partner my parent group uses cycles a wide variety of ads through the site. I don’t really have a ton of say there, although, honestly, while I don’t care for tobacco products, I don’t have an issue with the ads here.

Arthur, while I do think we need to read the writing on the wall regarding lead ammo, I also think sportsmen need to be actively involved in the process of moving from lead to non-lead components. Otherwise, we’ll continue to see baby-with-the-bathwater solutions such as we did here in CA. But then again, this is what I’ve been saying for years now… I just hope it’s starting to seep through.

First off, Phillip, I completely understand where you’re coming from when it comes to blog motivation. I think it’s that time of year or something.

I definitely do not see this lead ban issue going away. I actually think it is picking up steam. While I’m not ready to embrace it, I think all of us need to start looking at alternative options.

Pity they won’t outlaw the chewing tobacco I see in the ad above this post.

Sorry, couldn’t resist. No offense met; I’ve just never seen a tobacco ad on a blog before.
