Well, he'll have a job, keeping us all safe, I guess.
We won't have a job to go to, or money enough to do anything, but we'll be safe.

The company should immediately have the air tested in the range and in the store and in several places. All employees should be tested for lead levels in their blood. Then clothes that are worn all day by someone running the range should be tested. Finally, with the information from these tests, an plan should be drawn up to address in problems (If there are any.) Illinois Gun Works did a lot of damage to themselves by not having a lot of this testing already in place. Anyone running an indoor range should talk to a safety expert and either verify that they have no problem or start working on a plan to eliminate any problem that they find. Nice way to insure job security for "safety experts" and to put indoor ranges out of business or to make them so expensive that the ordinary person cannot afford them.
Life is risk. A great many OSHA/EPA standards are insanely risk averse.

Well I can certainly see the point where all the lead dust is in the air. But don’t they have air filters?
