If you are shot, you wont die of lead poisoning.

CNN.com - Feds take shot at unleaded ammo - Jul 27, 2004

Ha ha ha, law enforcement agencies are trying to replace bullets that have lead in them for health purposes! So next time you get shot, at least it wont be the lead that kills you! The human rights report, worldwatch 2003, mentions executions in India which are called police "Encounters". These encounters take place between "criminals" and "terrorists" (put in quotes because they dont have a fair trial) and highly trained police sharpshooters. They have no intention of taking any prisoners. If you wanted to take people into custody for a trial why would anyone use REAL bullets rather than, say rubber ones or something else that debilitates but does not kill? There are those who believe that encounters also help to kill any leads to other people who may be BEHIND the scenes. Like in the case of Mrs. Indira Gandhi's assasination or of the death of Lee Harvey Oswald.
