| Dept. of Homeland Security Advisory: All American homes must have an emergency radio
I received this email through the GOP-usa email system. It linked me to this page. I am currently searching the DHS website for more information. https://www.newsmaxstore.com/nm_mag/radio_free.cfm?PROMO_CODE=493B-1&

| That company should be sued for using the name: "The Department of Homeland Security" for a B.S. ad.

I'll buy my own Thank you very much. lol Not aimed at you Crazy, but like 9mmfan said, bogus ad. All it's about is to get you to buy magazine subscriptions. I hate crap like that. Besides, if I'm going to get any magazine subscriptions, it's be shooting related that's for sure... Not about to make any media pukes any richer...

NO! Not DHS. Look at the address in the address bar. If it was, it'd end in .gov... And thanks for the PDF link to the checklist moose...

We have a NOAH radio that has backup batteries. It's prob'ly a good thing to have here in tornader town, USA. It comes on automatically, when there's a threat in the area, of tornaders, or severe weather. It's prob'ly all the radio we need here.
