The lead shot just passes on through, no big deal

We have a legislator here in Iowa who is a hunter who doubts the many studies of the impact of lead shot. He said, more or less, that one may bite a lead shot or even swallow one and he went on to say that it just harmlessly passes on through. So I talked back to the radio and said; Ya, passing through but taking time to peculate in the stomach so it can pass into the intestine so the intestine can absorb the nutrients from the contents of the stomach such as food and the lead shot, would that be a situation of lead poisoning?
What follows are 'facts' from two sides...
