I seen a lot of people making such a big deal and bad mouthing it. I was seeing all that and all I could think was holy cow its just a text. I'm told the thought is that the government has my cell number. Here's something even scarier - they also have all your other personal info as well! Where do people think their social security number came from in the first place????

I was crawling around in the bottom of a piece of 4160 gear when my phone went berserk...
Thought I was dead. Lol
Good to know that I'm on the fallout shelter A-list.

With as much rain as we have had in the last couple weeks nobody and that includes Government ner-do-wells has a shiny outfit around here. Zim

I actually thought it was a good idea. Fro years we have had an "Emergency Broadcast system" on the TV and radio. In these modern days, almost everyone has a cell phone in their pocket. If the Government really would need to warn us of a SHT moment. This Cell phone alert system makes sense.

great idea I have been saying we needed this or something for 17 years and a few weeks , my employer even developed a mass notification system for medical agencies shortly after 9/11/01 many places are using it.
where this presidentialalert needs further development , there needs to be a way to make it silent.
I was talking with the Deputy chief tonight and we were talking about a bunch of things and I asked if they were given any way to silence it. he said no , would local LE be able to use it on a local or regional level he thought the answer was no.
he was telling me there were people who sued to have a way to turn it off and didn't get it
I asked , if we are in the middle of a national emergency and you are responding to a local even lets say a Mass active shooter event with radical extremists shooting up dozens of locations at once and the shelter in place order goes out at a national level and your phone starts squawking , the police union needs to demand a way to turn it off , every officer is now carrying a phone we the city pay for their phones they use them so much and they are that important to job communications.
there would be other situations that it would also be necessary
I attended an active shooter training earlier this week , how cell phone heavy our society is was apparent in the training , virtually every slide in the presentation included "silence your cell phone" because the instant shooting starts people call to check on their loved ones. which could give away their position if they are sheltering in place. if egress isn't an option lock the door , turn off the lights , get out of sight , silence your cell phone , have one person the farthest from the door place the 911 call quietly , while others form a plan of attack to defend if the shooter gets through the door.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Why on earth would you ever want to silence it? If something pops off that’s a big enough deal to get a national security alert, I darn sure want to make sure I hear it.
