Hello my friends. I have watched a video today that really caught me off guard. How is it that this terrible situation has gone on for years and nearly no one knew!? Kony 2012. This video is to bring attention to a man in Africa. Stealing little children, making them murder their families, and joining his army. This is a 30 minute video, and it just may change your life. Please take the time to watch it, if for no other reason than those children. A few Americans are fighting the battle to bring attention to this, and thank gosh they are!

    I appreciate you sharing this link! However, I am keeping it about Joseph Kony! His crimes are bigger than the youtube video, bigger than the activist group. He needs to be stopped!

    This is like one of those annoying things that pops up on facebook every few months.

    Post a picture of a cartoon and help battle child abuse.

    That being said, I have no clue what any of this is, and choose to ignore it. like the 10 zillion other causes i see online.

    105% of people posting about it do nothing to actually change it.

    It'd be like me saying im gonna paint my house red in support of something.

    It doesn't actually help or do a thing.

    Well I have to say that I completely disagree with you. I cant speak for anyone BUT myself, and I have notified as many different outlets as I can. News, politicians, as many as I can. This isnt just a generalized, oh help children. This is a specific situation that needs to be brought to everyones attention. But, while I am doing whatever I can to help, there are others that could really care less. Which is their choice.

    What has the ICC done considering he's been their number one target since their inception in 2002? I'm curious. Regardless, Kony should be stopped asap.
