California bill would create missing persons alert ONLY for black women, children
The Amber Alert system is not race-segregated like the Ebony Alert would be.
Libby Emmons

A new bill proposed in California would create an "Ebony Alert" system to specifically notifiy the public when black women and children go missing. While the state already has a missing persons alert system, this one would only be for black women and children.

The state currently has an Amber Alert for missing children, a Silver Alert for missing elderly persons, and a Feather Alert for missing indigenous persons. The Amber Alert system is not race-segregated like the Ebony Alert would be.

In a release on the race-based crime bill, state senator Steven Bradford said that the bill would "address the often ignored or lack of attention given to Black children and young Black women that are missing in California."

His reasoning is that black children, which comprised 38 percent of those reported missing in the US, are often classified as runaways, meaning that their disappearance does not trigger the Amber Alert system. ...

"Feather Alert" sounds like stereotyping to me, Kemosabe.
I've seen very many Amber alerts in my region about missing black children. They aren't ignored. Bradford is an idiot.

So you're saying it's the only way for California teams to keep the teams in other states from stealing their Black athletes? I don't even comprehend what your statement has to do with a racist proposal by a racist in California, nor what if anything it has to do with athletes. Are you saying all Black women are athletes, or only the ones in California?

Well,at one time it WAS a very nice part of America.

Then the communists took over.

They only took over because "we,the people" in charge at that time allowed them to take over.

UPDATE Oct. 10, 2023
Quote
Governor signs Senator Bradford’s “Ebony Alert” legislation to help bring home missing Black youth and Black women
SB 673 gives police another tool and raises public awareness
October 09, 2023
Press Release from Calif. Sen. Steven Bradford

 Governor Gavin Newsom has signed SB 673, Senator Steven Bradford’s “Ebony Alert” legislation.

California will become the first state to create an alert notification system to address the crisis of missing Black children and young Black women between the ages of 12 and 25.

“Today, California is taking bold and needed action to locate missing Black children and Black women in California. I want to thank the Governor for signing the Ebony Alert into law,” said Bradford. “Our Black children and young women are disproportionately represented on the lists of missing persons. This is heartbreaking and painful for so many families and a public crisis for our entire state. The Ebony Alert can change this.”

According to the Black and Missing Foundation, 38% of children reported missing in the U.S. are Black. The U.S. population is 14% Black.  Black children are disproportionately classified as “runaways” in comparison to white children who are classified as “missing.” As a result, many Black children do not receive the Amber Alert or media attention highlighting that they are missing.

Black women and girls are at increased risk of being harmed and trafficked.  A recent report on human trafficking incidents across the country found that 40% of sex trafficking victims were identified as Black women. 

SB 673 authorizes a law enforcement agency to request that an Ebony Alert be activated by the California Highway Patrol if the investigating agency determines that it would be helpful. Similar to the Amber Alert, the Ebony Alert would activate electronic highway signs to alert the public of the missing person. ...
The Amber Alert would go into effect if a little black child were missing, though, so what's the point? Seems a bit, you know, redundant.

So Goobernor Noisome and fellow Dems somehow believe that the people who fail to report disappearances of blacks to the Amber Alert system will nevertheless report disappearances of blacks to the Ebony Alert system? I do not think reality will conform to their imagining.

Doesn't matter because it gives them just one more source to embezzle money from,while hiring their cousins children at inflated salaries to run it.

For a percentage of the cut,of course.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.

Serious question, since this will be an ebony alert system just for Blacks will the alerts be made using ebonics? I mean since they obviously don't want Whitey involved. What's next will the Hispanic democrats demand a Taco or Tortilla alert system?
