Amber and Silver alerts were made for the most vulnerable, helpless, weakest members of society that need constant care and attention.

It’s a hell of an admission to model another alert after those.

File an FCC complaint.

ElPadrote - Yes I will wake up get dressed and patrol my suburb looking for a 6’2 white dude wearing blue shirt and blue jeans. Surely he won’t change by then. Cause he got the stupid message too.

Fucking lol.

Turned off all emergency alerts immediately. Open Settings. Scroll down and tap Apps & notifications. Select Advanced or Advanced settings. Tap Wireless emergency alerts or Emergency alerts. ETA: on iPhones you can go to the weather app to set up it’s own separate emergency alerts for severe weather

Couscousfan07 355 votes • 9h The irony is that in Austin they had exactly this situation last yr - a guy going running thru town shooting random people. But no emergency alert. Meanwhile we’re getting 442AM alerts for something that happened at the far end of the state….

This comment. Jeez.

Blue alerts cant be blocked on my phone like amber and silver alerts. I live 300 miles from where this occurred.

Police abusing the system again.

Amber alerts are the only ones I’m familiar with. Children come first. Beyond that, a Blue Alert can eat my ass.
