Any missing child of any race is worthy of a media frenzy. Zalatix Aug 2012 #2
Bet? Any actual frenzy seems to centers around the lack of police response. TheMadMonk Aug 2012 #6

The fact that theres an actual missing kid, seems to almost be a sidebar issue.

Just out of the blue using missing kids as some prop in a ridiculous post - and don't forget to make it racial.

Yea, let's not have any more news coverage of missing people, and that goes double if they happen to be blondes!

who cares if a white girl goes missing? What does it matter if she’s been abducted, raped, or even murdered? Especially if she’s a blonde?
