This appears to be a good thing - elderly people disappear and are never heard from again. And nobody cares, unfortunately, if they don't have family or friends.
This needs some study. As good as the idea seems, I am leery of who is promoting it for country-wide adoption.
This sounds good on paper, like so many other laws. Only those who did the final edit know exactly where the loopholes are and who benefits from this legislation.
Sadly, I have learned the hard way one has to know the intent of the authors of a document and not to trust words on paper which could very well be another smokescreen.
It would be administered by the Dept. of Justice, on the federal level, as a coordinating device through all the states.
I think it could be a good thing for Guardian grannynaps!
I am hoping this Silver Alert is like an Amber Alert. If so, then that's great.
Anything to help the elderly is welcome. I think this might be good.
Sounds like a great idea, long overdue.
