You won't believe what Sears is selling now"Hot & Exotic" PORNOGRAPHY!

You won't believe what Sears is selling now "Hot & Exotic" is just one small sample of Sears' explicit DVD offerings

May 6, 2011

Dear Freeper,

Under the new leadership of Chairman Edward Lampert, Sears is now offering hard-core pornographic DVDs and music. Not just a few x-rated products, but scores of them!

AFA ordered one of the DVDs to see if it really came from Sears. It did! It was mailed to us in a Sears envelope, with a Sears shipping label, from a Sears distribution center.

Not only does Sears' website allow children to view its pornographic offerings online, it will sell them to children. During our online check-out process, we were never asked to verify our age.

I hope you will take my word for it, but if you must see the proof, AFA has set up a Sears Project page with more information, and how AFA navigated Sears' website quickly and easily to access hundreds of explicit products. Warning: the material is extremely graphic and offensive, although it has been edited by us.

Technology allows Sears to remove and stop selling these products within minutes, if they want too. AFA has tried more than a half-dozen times to reach out to Sears quietly and professionally. Basically, their single response was, "We're going to keep on selling them!"

You have to return all the ‘attachments’ to get the refund.

“I did a search and I can’t find it. It wouldn’t be the first time AFA has been wrong. They seem to fall for email scams occasionally, usually around Christmas.”

It’s NOT an “e-mail scam” and I’d like to hear more from you about when AFA has been “wrong before”.

In this situation they actually ORDERED the DVD’s from Sears. It’s on their website and written about in the release I just posted.

AGAIN:

Take Action

Unless Sears hears from you, they will continue to sell hardcore pornography. If you can only do one thing, please:

Please call your local store manager and politely ask him to pass your concern along to his district manager. You can find your local store phone number here, or in your local yellow pages.

Additional steps you can take to make your voice heard:

1. Send an email in your own words using Sears’ website feedback form.

2. Make a call to the Sears’ Public Relations Department at 847-286-8371, option 1.

3. Make a personal phone call to Sears, so your concerns are clearly understood. Call Sears’ corporate headquarters directly and ask to leave a message with Chairman Edward Lampert’s office. The number is 847-286-2500.

It is very important that you forward this alert to your friends and family members.

Sincerely,

Tim Wildmon, President
American Family Association

From what I can tell, perhaps Sears has heard enough complaints that they have cleaned up their website(s).

From the looks of things, the facts this article is based on are from an order placed March 31. It looks like the YouTube video was posted by American Family Association on April 19. I'm guessing that after a few hunderd (or thousands) of emails and phone calls, Sears decided the lost business from this mistake was much greater than any sales they would have made on these titles.

Did your tool break while in use?

If your tool is not performing correctly, please check that you have fresh batteries. Your success and pleasure in using the tool depends on fresh batteries.

Usually you get a free replacement tool, not money back. Please be prepared to turn your present tool in at the customer service desk. The young lady at the desk will be happy to provide service to you.

In a note of seriousness, I trust AFA to shoot straight. It would not be surprising to see that Sears has plunged into the porn business. Marriott Hotels, owned by supposedly devout Momron High Priest, J. Willard Marriott, has offered porn on their in-room TVs for a long time. With some, money trumps all and porn is just another money maker to dead souls.

Dear Lord!!!

I can’t remember the last time I was in a Sears. Most likely it was around the first Clinton term.

“I did a search and I can’t find it. It wouldn’t be the first time AFA has been wrong.”

I don’t think they were wrong, I think Sears is in the process of correcting the situation. None of their movie links work onsite. They just send you back to the home page...that requires programming to re-direct you when you hit their links.

As an expert in such subjects I can say without question that there is nothing you can do to verify age outside of government control of the Internet and even then it is difficult. I DO NOT advocate government control of ANYTHING.

The credit card acceptance is best so far as it takes being 18 to get one.
