FEMA and POTUS ability to text all U.S. cell phones

[Grand Vol]

I still hate those. Not sure I've ever seen one that wasn't just a test.

Come to Oklahoma. During the spring and early summer, folks pay real good attention to them.

Like I said, it's just a technological advancement of something that's been in place since 1951.

MP, just because you don't receive the alert doesn't mean that they can't reach out and touch you.

P.S. Keep your phone out of your pocket.

P.P.S. Unless it's Melania texting.

Incredible movie! The time warp is classic. I saw it over 50 times in college.

I'll be sure to let my 65+ year old, white as biscuits, conservative Christian co-worker know he has been flagged as a communist.

They’re called spies man. I wouldn’t let on that you know the deal. I’m sure his Soros issued Jitterbug doesn’t get alerts anyways.

Imagine Hillary’s face when she got that text alert lmao.

She probably smashed her phone with a hammer.

You're like 15 hours behind.

I was in Atlanta traffic yesterday.

I don't see a need for this system, we already have systems for emergency alerts so why not just use them? I also think, actually pretty damn sure that at some point this will be used for nefarious purposes by either the government or hackers will gain access.

Look, just because you're old doesn't mean technology can't be updated.

I should save this post for posterity, the system will be misused or worse.

Updating technology doesn't have to reach into my private life without my permission either.

How is this reaching into your private life? Are you as insulted by billboards and commercials?
