This morning, the AFA newsletter mentioned that I could send a letter to Larry Costello, Director of Sears Public Relations department. I could give you a link to the AFA page (that's been digitally altered enough to not show everything); it shows the Sears website page that's selling pornographic posters. But I don't want to "stumble" anyone! Just trust me: It's porno. It's kinky. It's a far cry from the Sears of generations ago. Didn't Sears used to sell farm equipment and kitchen tools back in the day? I guess there's not enough money in that :(
The American Family Association makes it easy to fill in their online form. If an issue ever bothers you enough to let any given company know about it, the AFA's form is user-friendly. Even if you don't have much time, they've already filled in the text (if you just want to sign your name to it), or you can write your own message. And off the email goes, good and simple.
In this digital age, we ought to use the technology that can so easily make our voices heard. It's a hard war to fight, and until the return of Jesus Christ, I'm sure it's a losing battle. But, Good News: The right side wins in the end!
So here's my little letter to Mr. Costello, sent through that online form:
Dear Mr. Costello,
I don't know why Sears would sell porno on its website. Business should never be so bad that you'd need to resort to that. You might make more money, but I'll be sure to avoid your store. You might get rid of a few annoying customers like me, but you won't get rid of your conscience. It will come back to haunt you.
If you change your position, the AFA will inform me, and I'll be able to pass a better report along to my friends. Until then, I'll have to tell them about this...
Sadly.
