    CBP then told the courier that the shirts did not have a “country of origin” marking on them and said they would be returned to China or would be “destroyed under CBP supervision”

      They are invariably being held to the strictest scrutiny because they offended the inspectors, but country of origin labeling isn’t so customs knows where it came from, but so consumers do.

      https://www.cbp.gov/trade/rulings/informed-compliance-publications/marking-country-origin-us-imports

      They obviously know where the shipment came from

        Yeah theyre being assholes about it but it could happen with any other shipment, it just happens that well like I said they’re being assholes about it. Also the shirts are funny.

        They know where the package came from, but the shirts are required to have a label for the consumer to know.

      The only free speech that is allowed is the speech they agree with. You know, “free speech” (*some prison may apply).
