They just found a 10 year old taken from her bed by a former babysitter. She's okay. The asshole's in custody.

I'm forming a lynch mob. BYOR.
 
I like the plan... I hate the sirens they use on the radio... I swear... the alert is 2 minutes long before they start speaking and explaining everything.
 
Someone I know complained that the Highway signs made traffic slow down to 55mph. I said, "So fucking what?" This system is actually Goddamned working. Do you know how amazng that is?
 
HIs life has already been one of rampant cruelty.

His name's Glenn MacArthur Park.

I mean..MacArthur Park?

That's like being named John Wildfire Smith or John Honey Doe.
 
Funny you mentioned it. I'm listening to a news report about that, as we speak.
 
Bring Your Own...Rifle?

A few days ago here a four-year-old latina girl disappeared from a park where she was with her parents and her five-year-old brother. The brother was supposed to be watching her, and told police that he might have seen her fall into the lake.

The police decided not to implement an Amber Alert, and concentrated on searching the lake with divers instead (although they were still following the possibility of a kidnapping). The family cried racism, stating that if the girl was white, there would be an Amber Alert in place.

A day later, a woman (now a suspect) brought the little girl to a local clinic. She had been kidnapped after all. Oh boy...
 
My boyfriend and I were talking about the Amber Alert last night. I think it is an absoultely wonderful idea. They just instituted it here. Hopefully we won't have any reason to use it though.

Police still have to use common sense with the Amber Alert...otherwise, we will have Amber Alerts put into affect for every child that goes missing for more than 10 minutes. Can you imagine what a chaotic mess that would be?

But I am glad that the system is working so well. As someone with 3 young daughters, I would hope that it would work as well for me if I ever needed it.

Lynch mob? I just had a flash of David Lynch with a shotgun. Now that is scary.
 
I'm going to sound like a moron for asking such a stupid question - but what is the Amber Alert?

I think we should turn off our computers and watch the news cause I don't know either. But, I'm damn glad it worked! :)
 
From the website: www.klaaskids.org

"The Amber Alert is a critical missing child response program that utilizes the resources of law enforcement and media to notify the public when children are kidnapped by predators. Although the scope of the Amber Alert varies, the criteria for activation are fairly consistent. Whether it is a local, regional or statewide program, law enforcement activates an Amber Alert by notifying broadcast media with relevant identifying and case information when circumstances meets the following criteria:


The missing child is of a pre-determined age;

The law enforcement agency believes the child has been kidnapped;

The agency believes the missing child is under threat of serious bodily harm or death.

Once they receive the Amber Alert radio and television stations interrupt regularly scheduled programming to notify the public that a child has been kidnapped. Because 95% of all people driving in their cars listen to the radio, this is an extremely effective way of providing descriptions of the child, the kidnapper, vehicles or accomplices."

Here's a link to an article on what the Amber Alert system is and how it works here in Pennsylvania (not where the event mentioned in this thread happened, btw, but pretty much the same thing)

Amber Alert

It was used for the first time here in Pennsylvania about a month or so ago. Here's a link to the story on that:

Amber Alert used in PA

Hope that helps.
 
Oh! Okay, thanks for the clarification. That helps alot. I was wondering if I was just exhibiting newb-idiocy or what. ;)
 
Thanks guys! :)

That sounds like a great program. I haven't heard of it in Ohio yet, but honestly, that means nothing. I don't watch much tv or read the newspaper. I get all my news from Lit! :D ;)

I can tie a hangmans knot. Regulation or slip?

Slip might be more fun. Don't forget a low fire to keep his/her toes warm.


note...people who harm kids do NOT want to be around me.

I'm with you and DCL on this one.... anyone that would harm the kiddies deserves a slow, drawn out unmerciful death. Anyone that would do harm to one of my children might soon find out what a big game animal feels like after being gutted and skinned....alive!

These kinds of sick fucks should never be allowed to make it to prison.
 
About the 4 year old girl in Echo Park: What were her parents thinking, letting her wander off with her 5 year old brother? Are they terminally stupid? Both children are too young to be let wander around like that.

It's similar to parents who set their kids down in front of a TV in a store, and go shopping. They're not fucking thinking! You never leave your kids somewhere like that. You had 'em, you take care of 'em! Christ, some people are morons. Your kids are the most precious things in your life. You don't just set them down somewhere and walk off. Let alone expect them to still be there when you finally wander back.

first of all why would you leave a five year old in charge of anything i mean come on what is he going to stop.
the amber alert is the best system for kidnapped kids.

I would die if anything ever happend to my kid.

I agree with you a hundred percent. also parents should never leave there kids in a car alone its just not safe. there are alot of sickos out there and you never know who it is.
 
Once again, SIN/AJ/MarkovCain/AndraJenny/PigBoy, to continue using the recent rash of child crimes as a springboard for your feud with me is ugly.

Oink.
