Puerto Rico Points of Interest

Tuesday, October 09, 2007

There is no reason for anyone to ever state that Puerto Rico is not the USA. I am a citizen of the greatest country, the USA, and no one has a right to them me otherwise.

TK Support,

Puerto Rico is the United States. I live in Puerto Rico, and the United States postal service is here, since we are part of the USA. I have a zip code in my address and there is no 3271 miles distance between Puerto Rico and the USA, since we are in fact the USA.

Please fix your website to work properly like such websites as Amazon.com and ebay.com who understand the dynamics of Puerto Rico.


Thank you,
Braulio

TK Support,

That last statement is so wrong in so many ways that I will in fact be blogging this whole email chain. Thank you for maintaining ignorance in the free world.

I tried buying something from my iTunes store and I couldn't because the state field in the billing address was unable to process Puerto Rico. C'mon, would it hurt Apple to throw a shipping address to Puerto Rico on FedEx or UPS? I mean, we don't need an Apple store, but if I can buy mp3s from iTunes why shouldn't Apple ship to me? 'Cuz I don't live in a state? Is this the 15th century? I live in the United States.. it's just not fair....
