Ban lead bullets then. Allows people to keep hunting while preventing more pollution in the wild.

Plenty of time after that to ban other things.

That's a very un-American solution. I think it would be much better to sell fire arms to eagles so they become aware of the problem and they can effectively hunt fresh prey and thereby circumvent the entire issue.

We did that in California. It worked.

Ban lead bullets then

Are you insane? These brave Eagles are dying to protect our freedom

They've been trying. I occasionally glance through the nra's magazine because a family member is lust-addicted to the stories of people shooting others to defend themselves, and there have been little articles in their 'defending gun rights' section about lead bullet bans for at least a decade now. The nra and other gun lobbies have a lot of money to throw at the issue, and have actually overturned some of the bans, I believe.
