Yes, you read that right. A rant about Operation Amber and their alerts. Which now go out over the Internet in addition to lighting up signs on the highway.
This is a rant which has been a long time in coming. That’s because I see it nearly every day. You see, I subscribe to the Operation Amber Alert mailing list, and so I see each and every one of their Amber Alerts which go out.
That’s pretty amazing to think about, isn’t it? That there are Amber Alerts every single day.
And that’s the issue. And that’s what this rant is about.
Perhaps even the average citizen could notice it, but having professional expertise in the area, Aunty is particularly aware of it.
The vast majority - and Aunty does mean the vast majority of “abductions” being announced by Amber Alerts aren’t even “abductions” at all. Not in the sense that most people think…

Is anyone else aware of the fact that links to aunty-spam.com take you to some site that has nothing to do with the article. I finally found the correct link for continued reading ,Thank you Googole BTW, at http://www.mangemerde.com/a-rant-about-operation-amber-alert/ . I have tried to follow some of the links before and been dissapointed that the trail ended in nowhere. Finally I considered voicing my concerns about this. After several months I am surprised to be the first or that it hasn’t been addressed sooner.
Being a single parent with custody this particular article caught my attention so I decided to look farther into it. Turns out to be a rant about the failures of human kind to carry through or their over zealousness to have the upper hand on the non custodial parent. There are sometimes VERY good reasons that both parents dont share joint custody. And for for one parent ot have full custody must mean the abducting parent might not be such a safe bet for more then short terms or supervised visitation.
Why wasnt I surprised ? It clearly stated it was a rant. If they are abusing the system to gain the upperhand there needs to be some accountability. Just like filing a false Police report can bring charges of their own. I cant get my wasted time back for this article.
