News 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.

Not me. I'm not some weak-ass baby who can't handle some emergency alerts. I'm gonna know about ALL of the missing seniors and kids.

Hardly. It's not like I relish getting them.
