Periodically, there are tests of our Emergency Alert System. You can hear them on the radio or see them on your television. But on October 4, there will be a test of the Wireless Alert System as well. A text message will be sent to all consumer cell phones to ensure that there's an effective way to warn the public about a national emergency.

Will residents of western Maui be permitted to participate? You killed GWB for Katrina. Not a word about 1,000 dead Hawaiians and the one party team that sentenced them to death. Ce'st la vie. There's a war to fund.
sending text messages to all consumers is hardly an effective way to alert the population, as many of us do not have any way of recieving text messages. Duh!

You're literally the only person in the current universe who doesn't receive text messages. What's your suggestion? Smoke signals?
@6:32 1000 dead? I think you need to stop watching Faux ‘News’, Newsmax and OAN
A ‘Nationwide’ test? F there truly is ever a national emergency in this country where everybody would need to be notified immediately, I’m afraid the emergency already happened and everybody will be well aware of it before any texts are sent out.
I can also imagine the bureaucracy involved about whether some event merits having the entire country be notified about something. To me, this is a big waste of time and money.
"1000 dead? I think you need to stop watching Faux ‘News’, Newsmax and OAN"
Um, not the original poster here, but yeah, over a thousand missing. Probably a good bet alot of them are dead.
Hey 2:43 PM, until confirmed there are not 1000 dead. Are they supposed to report in? It is Maui, been there, a very laid-back island. Change the channel or better yet turn the boob tube off!

"over a thousand missing. Probably a good bet alot of them are dead."
OR
"Something similar happened after a wildfire in 2018 that killed 85 people and destroyed the town of Paradise, California. Authorities published a list of the missing in the local newspaper, a decision that helped identify scores of people who had made it out alive but were listed as missing. Within a month, it dropped from 1,300 names to only a dozen."

" Not a word about 1,000 dead Hawaiians and the one party team that sentenced them to death."
The confirmed death toll is at 45 so claiming 1000 is quite a stretch.
Which party sentenced people to death?
Hard to believe Libertarian's hate people that much.
