Actually, it's a good question.
We rarely hear about missing kids of color, but let a caucasian girl disappear overseas, the media is riveted.
ALL missing kids are a tragedy. ALL of their parents are devastated.
ALL cases should receive equal treatment from the media and law enforcement.

I haven't noticed any bias or preference given in the news regarding what color a missing child is. We get Amber alerts here all the time and kids of all races seem to be included.
I'm curious as to why you've come to this conclusion? What objective evidence do you have? Ask yourself these questions honestly and see whether this is only a perception of yours. I'm pretty sure the data on missing kids will closely match the demographics of the area. Check the Amber alert website I've listed below and see if there is a disproportionate number of white vs. minority children when compared to local demographics.

Try asking channel 4. No seriously this IS a racist remark as I am sure that you have no evidence to prove your question true. Any child that goes missing whatever colour is I am sure treated the same. Can you give any examples, I doubt it, so stop asking racist questions like this one .

White parents tend to have jobs and a social network, blacks have a crack habit, figure it out.

For me to give an answer, the question you were asking would have to be true, and it is not.
