its weird seeing how the amber alert has gone nationwide. It's definately a good thing but still weird seeing how something that started from a few local radio and tv stations working with the local police has gotten so advanced.

Not only avanced, but effective . Many happy people because of the Amber Alert (all of their children are being saved within hours). I guess you'd be stupid to try to kidnap a child now (even though it's always stupid to do such a cruel thing).

They just had one here in Ohio and it worked...they mentioned that every Amber Alert issued here (about 20) since 1/2003 has resulted in the safe return of the children involved.

I don't mind as long as I don't get charged for it as a received text message or another tax...

You will not get hit as a tax or text message charge, more probable as a mandated charge from your provider.
