Employees want Ford to stop making police vehicles.

[Wayne M.]

When is enough enough? I hope they keep on popping them out.

Ford should tell those employee's their job is being phased out also. Less business, less people.

 

[TFucili]

If I ran Ford, I'd announce we were giving away one free PI per county, per state, in support of law enforcement. Don't like it? Get a job somewhere else.

Those employees should become former employees. I support Police 100%, and it's too bad the isolated cases caught on NATIONAL TV has turned so many against them.

Cheers, Ron

It's the fruit cakes that are against the Police. The problem we are having is the squeaky wheel syndrome.

You just can't make this stuff up......

Totally in support of any of the manufacturers building support vehicles for any PD.
What about those squeaky wheels. Do they not see that the subjects of the majority of their cases performed an act, or acts that were interpreted to put the officers or general populace in a position of great harm? You don't attempt to flee, grab weapons, hurt the police officers or others when requested to obey a lawful order. Consequences WILL occur if you do. Let the lawyers and courts help out IF there were improprieties in the arrest by the police.
Too bad the stinky poo-lease substance flinging from the squeaky wheel isn't grease...and warmly invite the whiners to find employment elsewhere. There are a lot of people who would appreciate a good job.

I say reassign them to the police cruiser line, and then see if they want to cease production

The concerned employees reportedly want Ford to take action by July 15.

I totally agree. Ford should immediately release the names and addresses of said employees who no longer wish to support LEO, and add them to a growing data base. BLM, Antifa, CHAZ, CHOP, etc. etc.
Surely if one supports such a cause they have also decided they no longer need the services of the first responders potentially using said vehicles. Having a list of names would help first responders sipher out the people who really need and appreciate assistance when calling in and the people who accidentally and reflexively call emergency numbers when the S.H.T.F.

This could be a very valuable list, let's hope Ford leads the way

Then a question arises where I have perceived an issue in the article's last two paragraphs - especially the last one. I must have missed something, or just plain don't want to understand what I think I read, or why it was even mentioned.

In a letter to Ford employees that was shared with The Post, CEO Hackett said the company will “continue to be a powerful voice for Black Lives Matter, holding ourselves accountable for significant change, while also continuing to help keep communities safe by producing Police Interceptors and partnering with law enforcement in new ways to strongly support the safety for all members.”

Hackett joined the chiefs of the other big three US automakers — GM’s Mary Barra and Fiat Chrysler’s Mike Manley — in skipping a White House dinner with Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador on Wednesday.

​

A vague article that addresses my curiosity:

Have to be careful how I word this somebody is watch! These out spoken Ford employees need to resign there position, so that Ford can hire and retrain some new employees who will less complaining about outside influence.

400 NYPD cops apply for retirement. De Blasio needs to be run out of town. OAC defending the violence as people stealing in order to get bread.

Looters need to be shot. Let's see AOC defend that.

 

[Ozymandias]

Just google for "Thousand Currents" and start reading, then find out WHO stands behind that organization.
Then you'll know what's going on, BLM is no more then a vehicle they use to reach the goal.

We disrupt the western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement.
I think Johnson's Great Society did that already.

I was always taught that if you did not have any skin in the game than you do not have a say in matters! What I find amazing is that they the employees think they can dictate to the company what they can and can not sell? Ford is in business to sell and make a profit on what they make! If an employee does not like what they make and sell than they should go and fine a new job! Maybe selling flowers or some other flower child occupation!

 

[MarkEagleUSA]

To his credit, the CEO seemed to hold his ground saying dropping those vehicles is not an option.

I agree... if you don't like what your company sells, find another employer.
