I figured most of you have heard of it by now(as I know i spreaded it by constand rants in my classrooms lol) but anyways:
KONY is a man in Africa who abducts children. The boys, making them little soldiers killing thier familys and other inccocent beings, and womens being sex slaves. Children here basicly have no home now, and cant sleep at night with the fear of being abducted. The thing is though, hes been doing this for like more than 10 years, and we never knew anything about it. I think it's about time we start acting now, and put this guy to rest.
This is the KONY 2012 Youtube video
I suggest you watch that. It may be long, but it's worth it. It made me realize that, my life can't be taken silly. There are others in the world, just trying to sleep at night. It's very sad.

So I want to hear your thoughts on this!

In my honest opinion, I think people are making too much of a fuss about killing one guy.
It's not him doing all of the kidnapping, it's the whole organization, and they need to be stopped, not the easily replaceable leader.

I've heard about this through fundraisers at my school. One of the 7th grade and my 8th grade social studies teacher share a room, and I've seen posters about this. I think this is a good cause, and I hope they go through with their mission.
It's the terror of knowing what this world is about, watching some good friends screaming "LET ME OUT!"

KONY 2012 is a film and campaign by Invisible Children that aims to make Joseph Kony famous, not to celebrate him, but to raise support for his arrest and set a precedent for international justice.

I still don't think of it as a "good cause".
They say that they're fighting the war, but how will punishing one man for "justice" really stop anything?
This is everybody rite now:

Kony hasn't exactly been a secret or anything. It just so happens that this time around, the awareness groups are rounding up the bandwagon.
And like Bacon said, it's rather pointless.
You can't solve your problems by just throwing money or "awareness" at them either, you need to actually do something.
In my opinion, there are bigger problems in Africa that can be dealt with constructively, like the lack of freshwater wells.
