"It's about something much bigger than media attention, something that touches our very soul and only the safe return of Elizabeth can heal and fill its void.

Pray for Elizabeth."


I don't think anyone could have said it better. Thank you, 4ourprogeny.

Unfortunately, it was just probably a drug buy in the hospital parking lot. Just a coincidence...

Are the comments posted in #61 from a news story that was reported today or is this from an older article?

Thank you to Government Shrinker for a splendidly written rationale for the great interest in this case. You are an asset to these forums. I'm a journalist and could not have said it better...

I suggest you pick a mssing child to read up on and then you post a thread here with all the details about that child and I bet we all will be on your thread too.

I have a few suggestions, just off the top of my head:

Molly Bish

Jahi Turner

Bianca LeBrun

The two little chicago sisters that disappeared a year ago

The new girl missing since 7/4, Daranne (sp?) in Texas.

The Ayala girl from Texas

Try google and let's see your results.

A body was found today that is believed to be that of the young girl.

Don't forget those two girls from Oregon who disappeared within a couple of months of each other. No trace of either of them.

To me, one of the reasons why the Elizabeth Smart case is getting such broad nationwide coverage is because the manner in which she disappeared...that was true in the Polly Klass case and also true in the Danielle VanDame case...

In all three of these cases, these girls were abducted from their own homes....people like to believe that they and their children are safe in their own homes...and this scares people very much...you warn your children about being careful on the streets, on the way to school, you caution them to beware of strangers offering them rides, beware of strange cars following them, etc, etc, etc...

But how do you warn them, that their own home is no longer safe? That is much more difficult, and scarey for parents and children alike...

There was also that little girl baby, abducted, I think from Florida....altho in this case, I know the parents are under suspicion, altho they maintain that their baby was stolen from their home...

I live in Western Washington, so we have been hearing more news of those two girls who disappeared in Oregon...and I am sure, that in every state, there are many missing and abducted children, who do not make the national news, but remain local stories....

But when a child is taken right out of his/her own home, this naturally becomes more spectacular for the news media, because the audacity and boldness of the abduction is so glaring...that is not ever to say, that any one missing child is more important than any other missing child...

But I think that the abduction of Elizabeth Smart, will only highlight other cases of other missing children...

I still try to maintain hope in my heart that Elizabeth Smart is still alive, ,but the longer it goes on with no news of her, the more pessimistic I become...

Still I do pray daily for her safe return, and pray for her family to remain strong for her, is that most dreadful time of all their lives...

I don't follow sports. I find them equally pointless.

Yes, that's what I thought, too. These slick cons--Ricci and gang--know enough not to meet in a lot with security cameras.

Because I'm amazed and annoyed by the willingness of people to become consumed with whatever the media puts in front of them

perhaps you will lead us to some really important threads that you approve of...I am sure they will contain graphic pictures and whatever profanity you can get away with....

get a life....leave us alone

Why would stories I find important contain graphic pictures and profanity? Why do I need to get a life? I suspect if we compare the number of posts I make each day on here, versus the number you and many others here make, your advice would be better spent on yourself. There's really no need to get so nasty. It really only tells me that I've hit the nail on the head and you're going to whine now because I've exposed a dirty little secret. Most people are sheep who will find interest in virtually any story the media drums on long enough. I know it's a hard fact to face, but that's the Television media's job- ratings. Everything else is secondary.

You're welcome! I'm glad I could bring more people here! It's great to see that so many people are obsessed with one girl when so many thousands of other girls of equal worth are missing. I'll be returning here overtly, so hopefully I'll bring even more people to your thread! Cheers mate!

I suggest we ignore some comments...it seems to feed on attention. And wants to show us its superiority.

read closer genius... I said "any more than all the other kids that are missing".

I care. I care so much that I am puzzled by the bizzare and quasi-morbid fascination everyone seems to have with this one girl, all because the media incessantly pounds on the proverbial drum. If people were really that concerned they would start a missing children thread, broken down by state, discussing all the known cases instead of feeding into the media's continual distortion of public opinion.
