Wow, that was fast.
Dan Cooper, founder and current president of Cooper Firearms donated money to the Obama campaign, lied later saying that he donated to McCain and the RNC too and much noise was made.
As of 7:50pm this is what’s on their website:
The employees,shareholders and board of directors of Cooper Firearms of Montana do not share the personal political views of Dan Cooper.Although we all believe everyone has a right to vote and donate as they see fit, it has become apparent that the fallout may affect more than just Mr. Cooper. It may also affect the employees and the shareholders of Cooper Firearms.
The board of directors has asked Mr. Cooper to resign as President of Cooper Firearms of Montana, Inc.
Daily operations will continue with the competent staff currently in place in Stevensville, MT producing the finest, most accurate rifles money can buy.
Dan Cooper has spentall of his working life producing the highest quality rifles built here in the USA. He started with nothing but the American Dream and built that into firearms company anyone would be proud of. We firmly believe Dan stands by the2nd amendment.
We wish him all of the best in his future pursuits.
That didn’t take long.
Except Zumbo manned up and swallowed his pride.
Cooper helped pay for that damn Obama infomercial that just raped my ears while I was waiting for the World Series to resume. He can’t undo that.
Do they have counseling for post auditory molestation related stress?
