    Amber Alert and Sharp-Eyed Citizen Help Save Missing Girl in California

    Thanks to an Amber Alert and a quick-thinking citizen, an 8-year-old California girl was rescued today after a horrifying night. Elisa Cardenas was playing with friends outside her house in Fresno, Calif. early Monday evening, when police say Gregorio Gonzales tried to lure the girls into a pickup truck.

    The children ran, but Gonzales allegedly grabbed Elisa and sped away. Her mother chased after the truck, but it was too late.

    "Please, whoever has her daughter to bring her back," said a translator on her behalf. "All she wants is her daughter back home." A statewide Amber Alert was issued, and more than 100 officers immediately went on the hunt, searching for the truck, which was captured on surveillance video at a nearby intersection.

    Then, early this morning, a man named Victor Perez spotted the truck. He jumped into his car and began following it. When he saw Elisa's head in the window, he acted boldly.

    "I was yelling at him and kept cutting him off," said Perez. "He was hiding her, pushing her down."

    Investigators say Gonzales shoved Elisa out of the truck and onto the street. As Gonzales fled, Perez called the police.

    I will never understand how this things can happen.
    In fact, I do not even care what can turn on someone, just do not force anyone to participate.

    looks staged, set up so that the system appears effective, as this 'kidnapper' acts like a total amateur, the truck gets easily/quickly spotted, the girl is visible inside, quite unbelievable

    Some outside scholars examining the system in depth disagree with the "official" results.[28] A team led by University of Nevada criminologist Timothy Griffin looked at hundreds of abduction cases between 2003 and 2006 and found that Amber Alerts actually played little apparent role in the eventual return of abducted children. Furthermore, AMBER Alerts tended to be "successful" in relatively mundane abductions, such as when the child was taken by a noncustodial parent or other family member. There was little evidence that Amber Alerts routinely "saved lives"

    Because the system is publicly praised for saving lives despite these limitations, Griffin and Miller argue that AMBER Alert acts as "crime control theater" in that it "creates the appearance but not the fact of crime control"
    Code:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMBER_Alert
    not to mention they (wikipedia) conveniently forgot to mention the fact that this ineffective system (and other similar systems of 'protection' & 'warning') causes fear/panic among the population which is a useful method for governmental/media psychological warfare against their citizens and naturally doesn't even scratch the surface of organized crime involved with many of the kidnappings, furthermore it is being used to justify continuous reductions of citizen rights/freedom and increased liberties of the repressive state apparatus over the citizens

    They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. - B. Franklin

    I don't think these things are staged, there's many pedophiles and people who make a fortune through the organ black market so I believe most of these to be true
