Sign Missing Persons Day Petition – Change the World!


Consider this. On any given day, there are as many as 100,000 active missing person cases in the United States, and every year, tens of thousands of people vanish under suspicious circumstances.

According the FBI, National Crime Information Center (NCIC) there are 105,229 active missing adult cases in the United States as of 1/1/2008. And 6,954 active cases of unidentified persons. Keep in mind, it is not yet mandated by law for law enforcement to include the Unidentified persons into the NCIC database. Many cases are never reported to law enforcement or entered into the NCIC. If it were fully utilized to its potential can you imagine the results?

With that said, take a moment to reflect on all the missing children, missing mothers, all the countless missing…worldwide. Think of their mothers, family & friends – what must it feel like to realize your loved one has VANISHED. I understand that this is not something you may enjoy doing. Ordinary folks don’t think of such depressing things. But can you just imagine for a second, the hell it must be to not know where you’re son/daughter is? The panic, fear & rush of thoughts, are they being harmed; are they alive/dead…? What a helpless & horrific experience for a human being to have to endure! Every missing child and adult is someone’s son or daughter, wife/husband, sister, grandmother, friend; This is an enormous problem throughout the world.

How about signing a petition for a Missing Persons Day to honor the missing and their families? I think it would be very helpful. The petition has the potential of making that day manifest! It would emphasize awareness of the suffering families around the world experience on a daily basis and encourage conversation and media attention (needed so desperately). It would help create change. No matter what country you live in, sign it and kindly forward to your friends. You can make a difference right now.
