I too turn it off but mostly because I think the system is abused for cases that Id frankly rather not be involved with and not take sides. I have zero faith that the party that the police consider the “kidnapper” is actually the kidnapper. Not unlike how the sex offenders list is filled with people who did innocuous things like urinating in public or an 18year old having sex with her 17 year old boyfriend. It’s something but they’re no threat to me.
They don’t realize that they simply devalue these labels by using them in this way. Amber alerts are often just custody battles between both biological parents. While one party may be in the wrong, there’s no life being threatened and I have little faith that the government is on the same side I’d be on.
