On the contrary, with the current situation in Eastern Europe and Asia, the materials are likely easier to come by than ever, particularly for someone willing and able to pursue criminal contacts.
I'm not saying I think it's a good idea for Boy Scouts (or anyone else) to be playing with radioactive materials in their sheds. I'm just saying that attempting to suppress the information
