Flinch! Ford finally bends, gay boycott ends

This is the first I have heard of this, I guess you could say it has come out of the closet. This is just another example of politically correctness. The "gays" put pressure on Ford and Ford gave them free money just because they said they were a gay org, amazing! Ford was sucking up to these types. After hearing this I don't think I will ever buy a ford again because the money could be used by these perverts to further their cause. Sick corporations, sick queers and a sick world.

Flinch! Ford finally bends,
homosexual boycott over
Activists say carmaker meets conditions
as sales plunged 8% per month since '05


In the face of plummeting car sales, Ford Motor Company has taken steps to reduce its aggressive, pro-homosexual policies, thus prompting a family-rights group to call off its boycott of the carmaker.

The American Family Association says it's suspending its two-year boycott of Ford, noting the auto giant has met the conditions of the original agreement between AFA and Ford from 2005.

AFA Chairman Donald Wildmon said the original agreement between the family group and Ford contained four items:

* Ford would not renew current promotions or create future incentives that give cash donations to homosexual organizations based on the purchase of a vehicle.
* Ford would not make corporate donations to homosexual organizations that, as part of their activities, engage in political or social campaigns to promote civil unions or same-sex marriage.
* Ford would stop giving cash and vehicle donations or endorsements to homosexual social activities such as 'gay'-pride parades.
* Ford would cease all advertising on homosexual websites and through homosexual media outlets (magazines, television, radio) in the U.S. with the exception of $100,000 to be used by Volvo. The Volvo ads would be the same ads used in the general media and not aimed at the homosexual community specifically.

Wildmon said a few minor issues remain, and AFA will continue to bring these to the attention of Ford.

According to AFA, during the 24 months the boycott was in effect, Ford sales dropped an average of 8 percent per month. The organization said its boycott was not entirely responsible for the drop in sales, but played a very significant role. A total of 780,365 individuals had signed AFA's Boycott Ford petition.

Ford did have policies beneficial toward homosexuals.
