I’m sure lots of you yesterday for that Presidential Alert. It was pretty loud st my house. Volume was on so when it went it went. Lots of people are also upset about it. It was just a test but what people where upset about wasn’t the test it’s self more had to do with the fact that we can not switch it off like we can the Amber or Weather Alert on our smart phones. People like being able to control there phones and what we do or do not get them one and the alerts are one of them. We have that option with Amber and Weather but not with this one. Please don’t make this political! I just wanted to explain why some people where upset with it. I’m sure there are some that are upset with the best for other reasons. But my reason has nothing to do with my views of the President just with the fact I can not switch it off but that’s okay. I’ll get over it in a few days.

It went off on my phone too and it startled me. I guess it will come in handy when and if there's actually an alert we need to know about. Hope it never does.

I knew it was going to happen I had seen several comments about t on Facebook so it didn’t scare me when it went off but t was very loud.
