I’ve lived long enough to see that indeed unintended consequences can absolutely outweigh even the most compassionate of intentions. “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.”
Of course, I don’t think Amber alerts are the worlds biggest problem. But if you have one person (the child) vs possibly millions of people (the alerted people) you don’t need that much negative consequences to outweigh the benefits. Add in the fact that the perp is alerted as well, and that the chance of saving a child from violence is already low.
