Gideon: Do you know what program did the most harm to this country in terms of crimes like this? Child abduction.
Russet: No.
Reid: "Stranger Danger".
Gideon: Flooded the schools with it.
Reid: I remember them coming to my classroom. It was "Officer Friendly" with "Stranger Danger" coloring books.
Gideon: Taught a whole generation about a scary man in a trench coat hiding behind a tree. Then we learnt that strangers are only a fraction of the offenders out there. Most are people you see every day. Your family, your neighbors, your school teachers. You know the rest. Prepared our children for 1% of the danger and made them more vulnerable to 99%.
