2. Can we issue an Amber Alert for missing Iraqi children?

Just a thought....

4. Holy cow I am glad we didn't have amber alerts when I was 10 - I was

awol from my house all the time.

5. Big difference, though

There are specific criteria that needs to be met in order to issue one. It isn't possible to order one if a kid is simply missing.

9. Like.. fishing pole still in the closet?

Excerpt from story 

He apparently went for an early morning walk without telling his parents.

Police in Collierville say Hunter Wade Craig was found in a park about two miles from his home.

10. Evidently, it is.

Unless this kid was complexly missing.

If they do that too often it will be like the Terror Alerts. Ignored.

7. Thank God he was found; I've got 3 boys and stuff like this

hits me in the gut.

We live in a world where sickos are just as likely to abduct boys as girls these days.

8. These days?

I'm sure you didn't mean it was better in the old days when sickos would (presumably) just abduct girls, but your post has me scratching my head a little.
