As far as Cooper goes, since his name is still on the Company, I'd bet he still owns a controlling interest in it. I'd also guess he "fired" himself to try and prevent the inevitable boycott of his company's products. For the guys not from the USA, I don't think you really understand how seriously we take our 2nd Amendment rights, and thats why we still have'em. Don't worry, once the election is over we'll all calm down...Geo
