More info on the Cooper Arms story.
Bob Ricker, of the AHSA (Astroturf Hunters and Shooters Association) calls Sebastian (and I suppose all of the other bloggers covering the story) "wackos" who are "out and try to destroy" people with contrary views.
Wrong. The free market runs best when everyone has the best information. We gunbloggers are simply in the business of making that information available to whomever chooses to visit our sites. The result of this tiff was that the board and shareholders of Cooper Firearms decided it would be in their best financial interest to distance themselves from someone who supports a political enemy of their customers.
I don't feel good that Dan Cooper is losing something he spent a lifetime building. I know he is passionate about quality rifles. He isn't a bad person, he doesn't hate gun owners or the Second Amendment. But he publicly supported someone, both financially and in word, someone who's views and politics are contrary to the best interests of his company and to fellow hunters and shooters. When someone does that, we call them out. If Bob Ricker doesn't like that, screw him. We all know Ricker isn't interested in facts anyway. |
