Also bemused by the "ERMYGOD THINK OF THE KIDS" knee jerk counter complaints in the face of continued complaints about the system. Amber alerts are important but should not be on the same level as an incoming nuclear strike.

They should not adjust the system. To send an Alert there is very strict criteria that must be met. Namely that law enforcement understands the situation and believes the child's life is in imminent danger.
This isn't mild violence in a cartoon we are talking about. People are thinking about children in imminent danger.
Personally I think people need to get over themselves.
