Default Ford bashing

http://www.boycottford.com/

Was reading a road kill story and it turned into that link. I knew there was a reason I didnt like Fords.

This is for a laugh and not intended to start a fight with the Ford crew in here.

F'ing rednecks.

Guess what. Real corporations (a real job) have anti-discrimination policies which outlines gay rights amongst other things. GM has their own, Microsoft, Boeing, etc.

Bible thumpers in the south are a bunch of narrowminded sack of brainwashed morons.

It's important to have anti-discrimination policies and regulations--Every corporation has them, and if they didn't, Al Sharpton and the NAACP would be there filing lawsuits (lol). However, Ford has really taken a step in wrong direction by endorsing and supporting things like homosexually themed work days, awards and events. Quite frankly I don't see how sexuality in general fits into any professional work place.. this is just pure lunacy on behalf of the people in charge at Ford. What's next.. Will we see Ford publicly take stances on Abortion and Illegal Immigration too?

There are no Ford ads applauding or promoting homosexual lifestyles, rights or acts--Consumers are reacting negatively to their internals, where they are doing such things. Hence why management is still changing as we speak. And no, heh, it isn't helping to sell Fords ;D

Ford initially took an anti-gay approach only to be shocked by the backlash from the gay community. Newsflash: the GLBT community is a largely untapped $240 Billion (with a "B") per year industry. Ford would be foolish not to aggressively market overtly to gays. (Same goes for as any business who wants to survive in the 21st century).
