[M16]

Looks like Ford is part of the anti-gun crowd.

[Bayouboy]

Are we boycotting Ford? Asking for a friend.

Yes!!!!!!!

Ford needs a new trim model...................................

If they are having shootings at their dealerships then they should give out guns so the customers can shoot their way out if it starts where they are

On the flip side, there are several car "salesmen" that should be shot for some their tactics

Ford is smart here. “IF” something were to happen as a result of this promo, Ford Motor Company will be sued for tens of millions of dollars in punitive damages for their negligence in not stopping a murder weapon given as an incentive to purchase their product. Lawyers go after the deepest pockets every time. This is why Walmart gets sued for hundreds of millions for selling a gas can stupid people are lighting themselves on fire with instead of the can manufacture.

Ford would offer to settle this for $10 million dollars just to make it go away. Lawyers know this.

I agree Ford corporation needed to do this. The liability is off the charts.

Same reason we quit raffling off shotguns as a fund raiser for our bass club years ago.
It's a part of the collateral damage we've taken due to circumstances.

Makes sense to me. My business I own sponsors a kayak tournament trail locally. We had discussed furnishing beer for the last tourney but then as we started really talking there is no way I could do that and not be held liable if someone wrecked their truck or killed someone else on the way home. I’d get sued and my business would be done. I’d say the same concept applies here. I say good on Ford for not wanting to be liable for one dealers decisions.

I know it's a tough thing to understand but just because anyone does something that we dont like that has to do with firearms doesnt mean that they are "anti gun"

Wait! what if somebody drowns during your kayak tournament? You might want to check into an umbrella policy.

No insurance covers what some drunk jackwagon does on their way home.

Me too, and I do what I can, which ain’t much. So many corporations are liberal altogether or have a liberal slant. You gotta do business with some of them. I just hope I never find out that the makers of Charmin are liberal, or I’ll really have the redass !
