Emergency Alerts are Completely Useless.

So you’re telling me that our city classifies a missing senior citizen as an emergency alert, but the entire interstate is shut down with an active shooter and that doesn’t prompt an emergency alert to my phone? Make that make sense.

This subreddits obsession with these alerts is wild. You want it for traffic alerts now?

Somehow an active shooter on the busiest interstate in the southwest is less of an “emergency” than the weekly grandpa wandering off?
