Ford Employees Demand They Stop Making Police Vehicles, CEO Reacts

A group of Ford employees demanded the auto giant stop making police vehicles, claiming they are “used as accessories to police brutality and oppression.” That’s when Ford’s CEO stepped in and set them straight.

A group of disgruntled Ford employees sent a letter to CEO Jim Hackett, making it clear they were deeply offended by having to take part in building police vehicles. “Throughout history, the vehicles that Ford employees design and build have been used as accessories to police brutality and oppression,” the letter stated.

"A group of Ford employees..."

How many? Two?
Evidently enough that the CEO had to publicly respond.
Here is what the Ford CEO said

"As we imagine the future power of our connected vehicles, smarter Ford vehicles can be used to not only improve officers’ ability to protect and serve, but also provide data that can make police safer and more accountable,” Hackett wrote in an office memo. “Just think, dating back to the Model T, Ford has more than 100 years in serving first responders and that leadership over the decades has been earned by co-developing our purpose-built vehicles and technologies with police and emergency agencies to make our vehicles the number one choice,” he continued.

“By taking away our Police Interceptors, we would be doing harm to their safety and making it harder for them to do their job,” Hackett added. “Again, this is why, given our insights, new capabilities and leadership, I believe these unfortunate circumstances present Ford with an even greater opportunity to not only innovate new solutions but also leverage our unique position to support the dialogue and reform needed to create safer communities for all.”

PJ Media provided a shortened translation of Hackett’s memo: “No. We’re not going to stop making police cars. Now get back to work.”
Yea, someone with pink hair got a few people also with various color hair to sign a paper. If you have ever worked on an assembly line then you know the line can make any idea sound good due to the boredom. Maybe they are shorting the stock as a side bet too. Happens.
