A while back, I was on Ft Lewis, and happened to stop by the Firestone Store. Two guys behind the counter...I asked wheel weights. It went something like this...I said, "Do ya'll happen to have any used wheel weights that I could scrounge, to cast some bullets and sinkers"? The one with all the authority (obviously proud of himself), says..."Yes, we have lots of them, but you can't have them." Me: "Why"? (already knowing his professional answer)...Him: "'Cause lead contaminates the soil and pollutes the ground". Me: "Do you know where lead comes from"? Him: "Yes"...Me: "Where does it come from"? Him: "The ground". Me, making solid eye contact with him: "Now...Think about what you just said and try to make some sense out of it". His expression told me that it all went over his head.
I was wrong for doing that, but his attitude just pissed me off.
