Less lead in the air... I guess we are smarter than we used to be in the years before 1970 so we do less stupid things. So, why did the country vote for Obama.

I suspect there has not been a decrease of lead in the air in Chicago on any given night. I suspect that there may actually have been an increase.

Fewer peoples shooting = less lead in the air.

I didn’t think that lead floated well, even in particulate.

Most of the lead in gas went to the surface of the valves, which is why it was added.

Only after better metals could we get away without leaded gas.

At least, that’s how I recollect it.

If it bleeds, it leads: basically means that the media loves violence. Television, radio, and film will for the most part have much higher ratings if it's about a bunch of people getting murdered rather than something nice, like somebody saving a cat from a tree. Ultimately, it's a statement about America’s fascination with violence. What are the most popular television series? Police shows which have as many shootouts and violent, action packed car chases that can possibly fit in each episode. If those things really happen, why haven't we seen or heard about them on the news?

The media loves Gun Free Zones which provide risk free areas for mentally ill gunmen to create havoc...and news.

Interesting that there is no mention of more criminals in jail and/or more people owning firearms for their own protection.

Ditto to post #8.

Back to the top, regarding this whole thread.

On post #7,could this really be TRUE (about MSM)? If so, these people are acting as, uh, animals.

“Gun Crimes Plunge Over Last Two Decades Despite Increase in Gun Sales”

Well, duh. Not all criminals are terminally stupid: more armed marks means less easy pickins!

Less lead in the air helps decrease the murder rate?? How about no lead in paint, will that help reduce murder rates, too.
