DISSING THE TROOPS: UPDATE Our news department has the update:An Internet company based in West Allis is confirming that it sent an inflammatory email to a US soldier.
The email has been making its rounds on the blogs. It was first reported on the website snopes.com.Sergeant Jason Hess, who's currently stationed in Iraq, had emailed discount-mats.com.
The company lists its contact information as an address in West Allis. Sergeant Hess inquired as to whether the company could send mats to an APO address, basically asking if the company can ship to soldiers in Iraq.
The company emailed him back. That email, which Sergeant Hess shared with Newsradio 620 WTMJ, said: "we do not ship to APO addresses, and even if we did, we would NEVER ship to Iraq.
If you were sensible, you and your troops would pull out of Iraq."A military spokesman says it's not unusual that a company won't ship to an APO address.A Vice President with Bargain Suppliers, the website's parent company, confirms the email was sent.
He says the employee who sent it is being held accountable and will be dealt with.In addition, the spokesperson says the address and phone number that are now being circulated around the world are someone's home in West Allis.
He says they've been bombarded with phone calls and as you can imagine they're getting plenty of complaints.
Anyone else sick of these anti-American morons? Send them an email and let them know what you think. It might take some work to find them as they are hiding out like little babies. Try contact@discount-mats.com
