Some people say the same thing about Amber Alerts, they are "annoying and useless" because it isn't their child missing.
- mulmen 5y agoHow is sending out an inaccurate amber alert beneficial to any actual missing child or their parents? How is doing so frequently any better?
- mike_d 5y agoThe top level comment provided a single unsubstantiated view of the wildfire data being inaccurate. As I mentioned up-thread, I was tracking a wildfire in Washington State and was able to determine by monitoring fire radios and watching cameras that the data was pretty accurate.
- mulmen 5y agoYour claim is no more substantial. The claim upthread is about Colorado, not Washington.
