I bought some cheap Chinese 2-way radios. The packaging has a big American flag and a “Designed in U.S.A.” claim, which I suspect is bullshit given the company involved. Also, there are two Bible verses referenced. This smacks of pandering to a particular slice of conservative Americans. All I want is cheap radios for skiing with my kids next winter, not a reminder of my country’s socio-political bullshit.

    I’ve had a UV-5R for over a decade now, and I’m just now learning of this. Mine didn’t come with any of the mossy oak black rifle coffee tactical sister fuck nonsense though.
