3. What is the purpose of ANY post...

but to inform and/ or create discussion. Missing persons deserve as much democratic consideration and justice as any other person.

Personally, I think they deserve it more so, because their voices (unless they are a young white college kid or white clean-cut mostly female rich person - for example, Smart, Sjodin, Levy, Peterson, Hacking etc.) are rarely heard from or written about or acknowledged in any way shape or form.

Do you know how many persons went missing in California at about the same time as Laci Peterson? Two that I know of specifically. One was hispanic (and also pregnant and also found murdered not too long AFTER Laci) and another was a prostitute, but guess which was talked about incessantly by the media?

Finally, missing persons and serial killers are an example of why the budgets of LE should be raised (and not ONLY for homeland security) which is A VERY POLITICAL subject either in the US or overseas - in my opinion,
