Well..some FORD Car Mfg Employees not wanting to make cars for Cops!

Geez, what in the World have we come to?
Heck, been a GMC man mostly (other half foreign cars) so put ‘em in a Chevy!
Note: Ford began the 1st Police Car Package with all the horns & whistles in 1950.
And, if these new requests seem to be outlandish but very similar to other leftist/Socialism ideas recently tendered, then you may be right that there’s a central command center putting them out one-after-the other..
until one sticks on the wall like spaghetti & they yell, they’re done..we’ve got their greedy Capitalistic assses b/c We The People (Socialists) know better how to run Your Business..the one Obama said you didn’t create by yourself.

and all those who want to get rid of all police should be sent there.
And a new reality show called "No Cops" should be filmed there.
Dumb boys, dumb boys, what you gonna do? What you gonna do when the bad boys come for you...

Simple solution really.

Let those employees go and bring in employees who don't give to feathers about who the car is made for as long they get a paycheck. It ain't that hard to find people who want good jobs with benefits.

Good. Somebody should tell these maroons that Japan and Europe can step in and have no reservations about who the customer is. Same with aircraft.

Sport model, take a deep breath, count to 50, deep six your default "socialist" squelch, consider that a lot of law enforcement agencies now drive -- omigod! -- Japanese cars or small SUVs and try to accept or even embrace dissenting views. You will feel better and live longer.

Gridfan your patronizing tone is unecessary

Reading the thread, no one objected to anyone’s right to hold or voice “dissenting” views.
Pointing out that employees of a top 100 American corporation are actively promoting anti law enforcement behavior in the manufacturing workplace is certainly interesting and worthy of note in today’s climate.
Pointing out the socialist inclinations considering today’s Democratic leadership and the policies they espouse seems timely and legitimate in an election cycle where they are one of two options.
There is a quote sometimes attributed to Churchill ....
“If you aren’t liberal when you’re 20 you have no heart. If you aren’t conservative by the time you’re 40, you have no brain”. I hope you are a young pup gridfan. As a 50 year old business owner for 25 years, working hard to succeed in our capitalist system, has taught me a lot about what actually works. It isn’t always what I want to work or what feels good at the time. Life is tough. Hope you keep your health and live long enough to realize how right Churchill is.

The Dodge Charger seems like a fine police car.

Some of these people are like stray cats. If you stop feeding them they’ll go away
They need to get in on the virtue signaling
To make a general judgement of police based on a few murderers is kinda extreme. It reminds me of profiling or racism. It’s bad.
I know some good cops. Good people with nice families. Not afraid To take a punch

Right now leftists don't want Ford to sell cars to cops but once they are in total control they won't allow Ford to sell cars to anyone they hate and that'll include Republicans (if you haven't been paying attention). If you think that sounds nutty just think how nutty getting rid of police entirely would have sounded six months ago yet here we are. The left won't stop until we are all either converted or destroyed. The sooner all those fence sitters realize this the better off the rest of their lives will be.

Well if those fence sitters don’t see the proposal to eliminate police as insanity I don’t know what will convince them. There has to be some democrats who realize having no police is National suicide right???

Yes. Ford was a rabid anti-semite. Your point?

Fairly simplistic approach viewing history without context or through a 21st century prism.
Let me get out in front of your attempt, he was Also a genius who changed the world through his vision for industrial manufacturing.
GM also sold to Nazi machine.
Ford And GM are hugely important pieces of the US economy and employ in their plants, subsidiaries and manufacturers 10s of thousands of Americans. That matters for people today. People 90-100 years ago? Not so much.
You do have choices in the market place.... BMW and Mercedes. Hmmm. Logic problem. How about the Japanese brands? More logic issues.
ALL of the men of history are flawed. Pretty comprehensive statement but indisputable. Today’s impulse to “burn it all down” is childish and at some point the adults, regardless of their political leanings, will have to step up, put the petulant children regardless of age back in the corner, and take control of this sh!t show.

Ford has deficiencies everywhere but the F150 ...
Ford, Detroit, and the Lions are good fits for each other ... those vintage Mustangs an T-birds had it going on ... but that was 50 years ago.
