Amber Alert - The Firearms Forum

Got something in my email felt compelled to pass it on, but it was fake Amber Alert.

Mea culpa.

Got home with a buzz on, and didn't think critically about the information, I just wanted to be helpful.

I hope there's a special place in hell for those who play on the sympathy of the public with crap like this.

Henry,
Sorry, but it looks like this is a hoax. Here's the link to snopes.

I was told a long time ago that this was a hoax.
