Joseph Kony is a man whom has committed and caused thousands of atrocities including the kidnapping of 30,000 children who were then raped and used as soldiers in his army which serves only to fuel him with power. Kony has avoided the attention of the international government for too long, please take 30 minutes out of your time to watch this video which will inform you on every aspect of Kony and the LRA:
KONY 2012 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4MnpzG5Sqc#ws)
I personally am hoping I am able to take part in spreading the posters against Koby around the English city of Norwich as well as donating and raising awareness (in ways such as creating this thread).
Please say what you plan to do and your thoughts on the subject. Also sorry if I made any mistakes or have made some rookie forum mistake as I may be mis-informed or just plain ignorant.
I really want Kony to rot in hell. He has committed unforgivable crimes. I don't even think Kony should live in jail. Make him live in hell.
Also In the News doesn't get much attention. Put this somewhere where it will be more noticed.
Maybe it would gain more attention in Serious Discussions? But I agree, that man needs to rot forever.
Inb4 the US/Other countries fuck him up.

Inb4 the US/Other countries fuck him up.
Inb4 we pull out because America doesn't give a shit, it doesnt threaten us or our give us anything. Thats what senators said. The only way to stop this is to get the public informed. To many people don't even know this man exists.
It's gaining popularity, luckily.
Almost 10 million views in two days?

As Redbark already mentioned.. Kony indeed needs to rot in hell.
He needs to rot in hell however, if you really want to make a difference do not a put a single dime into the Invisible Children charity. They are fraud and tend to leave out a lot of information.
I'll just leave this here:

Have Fun!
This corruption and cruelty is happening in nearly every african country, and middle eatern country. Even in some wealthy countries. If you did not know this before "Kony 2012" was flashing before your screens, you are retarded and too optimistic with the world.
This has sparked up a new breed of activist which I really really hate. So you've spread the video and made posters, good! Now tell me the other ways you've cared for ugandan children throughout the years. You are not an activist, or relovutionary by spreading the word on facebook.
Facts stated in the video have been proven wrong, and are extremely exaggerated, some of the crimes he stated happened in the 1960's and were in countries neighbouring uganda. The video is created for shock and persuasion, and it is well made.
If I recall from my research, A weak 30% of donations go towards Uganda. The charity is also not an official registered charity, meaning they can control fully where the money goes and what they can say about their project.
Although this problem is real, I doubt spreading the world will do anything. It could turn out like Osama, "Oh we killed him. Yup, but his body is in the sea and theres only a weak fuzzy photo to prove it."
tl;dr rantrantrantrant. oh and i cant promise everything i said is true, its what i got from a weak hours research into the topic and my general knowledge.
Kony using children as soldiers? Uganda be kidding me.

unfortunaly i did, lets review.
I said
"This corruption and cruelty is happening in nearly every african country, and middle eatern country. Even in some wealthy countries."the next line was saying "if you did not know
this without kony 2012 you're retarded."
as I said "
this", it is implied I am refering to the only point i have made so far in my rant, which is the quote.
so, to conclude, I was not saying if you did not know about the "african criminal mastermind" as you call him. I said, if you do not know of the corruption in the world.

For all of those who think Kony is the greatest thing ever and you should put your time and money to it, look at this first: http://visiblechildren.tumblr.com/ (http://visiblechildren.tumblr.com/)
I think the idea of catching Kony is good, but the way Invisible Children is doing it is essentially putting money towards the Ugandan army who is notorious for pillaging villages on their own, while Kony has already LEFT Uganda. Invisible Children also only spends 30% of the money received in donations towards the military, and keep the 70%. Maybe you guys should study up on the benefactor of money before you donate anything to them. Oh, and considering that Kony's army is full of small children, using force to capture Kony will only end up killing many many children, and the situation for those who have already been taken and abused won't change. Sorry to tell you guys, but killing Kony isn't going to stop an entire organization, which is only one organization in the entirety of Africa, an extremely war-torn land full of rebel groups that pop up every single day and kill eachother. Welcome to Planet Earth.

First of all look at what I said it is anti-kony not pro-Invisible children, secondly look at the start of the thread and you will see at the time people were not aware of how invisible children are hypocritical and flawed, thirdly nope.avi to joining a facebook group a group against 'corporations' (which in most cases refers to conspiracist and people who want a group to point at, which I know is what this whole Kony thing is doing but still every step at a time till the world actually some form of united armed force which fights for the common good of mankind and not for the personal interests of one country) I completely agree that people who go "LOOK HERE I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED UGANDA I AM A THIRD UGANDAN!" are liers and idiots (which is kind of similar to what I have done except I do not claim to be a long term activist or even an activist at all).
tl;dr I agree with you and ThY but don't shoot the messenger!

Looks like people made a right proper fortune off of how pathetic our society it. "This mildy disturbs me. I'll just throw some money at it to make myself feel better even though I know it wont help much. It doesn't bother me enough to go there and do anything about it so this is just a very shallow act of self gratification which makes me feel better about who I am" <- most north americans who donate to anything charitable

I agree with the video though, the power definatly is with the youth of today. THat's how alot of the political activist movements in South Africa started addressing the partheid system, and it's good to see it picking up speed in NA.
