City never told residents that gun range was shut down for hazardous lead levels

It would have been nice for them to know how the gun range polluted their neighborhood.

…one neighborhood in Mangan Park in Sacramento, California was literally being poisoned with lead from the local gun range. A note is now taped to the front door of the James G. Mangan Rifle and Pistol Range but that is the only notice and warning resident’s received before local reporters began asking questions.

Fifteen months ago the range was “temporarily closed” because it was polluting the area with hazardous levels of lead dust after decades of gunfire, according to the Sacramento Bee. In the time that the range has been closed neither the state nor county has cleaned the toxic dust from inside or outside the range, city documents show.

    And elsewhere, target shooters leave there trash strew all over America’s public land. I guess it’s their way of showing their strong patriotism .
