    ps http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-...thern-uganda-r

    I'm sure not much has been done in regards to this act, but at least Kony has been acknowledged.

      Re: KONY 2012

      I've just watched the video and shared it about.

      I hope something is done about this prick. But I think, what if someone else just takes his place? He's brainwashed enough people for it to happen, and that's what terrorists do.

        Then we'll just start another movement.

        But hey, if people want to raise awareness for a terrorist that over 50 governments know about, then that's cool. I'm sorry I don't feel the need to donate money to a movement that will accomplish nothing.

              I bought the kit. Terrorists must be known and they must suffer the consequences, whether this be propaganda, real aid, whatever. Either way, it sent the right message:

              Life > money

                Re: KONY 2012

                I'm not buying the kit. But Kony is still a pretty bad dude and it would only benefit Uganda/neighboring countries if he's captured/killed.

                Life != money

                  Re: KONY 2012

                  I'm buying an action kit tomorrow when I put money on my debit card. ^_^

                  It upsets me to see how many people get pissed over this clogging up their facebook. I see people saying shit like: omg this has been going on for years and i've known about it for sooo long, why does everybody suddenly care?
                  obviously because it was thrown into the spotlight and nobody has heard about it yet. -.-

                  Oh well, this thing is spreading like wildfire on tumblr and twitter. :')

                      i think the only most of you are contributing to this, is because you're too lazy to get off your ass and do something for this world, so you just purchase this "action kit" as an excuse.

                      cool vid tho lol

                            It's the littlest things in life that makes a big difference. Do you think the author of this video thought he could do something to stop Kony? It took him about 8 years to get the government's attention to the issue just because he was taking small steps to achieve his goal. You can start changing something by contributing to the cause. Spreading the video to your friends is enough.

                            Why is this the only "right" thing to do?

                                i'm with mike on this

                                the whole deal is horrid, how he's brainwashing/kidnapping children as slaves. it's pretty sick and disgusting.
                                but
                                buying an "action kit" for $30, or wearing some shirt to "raise awareness" isn't going to help capture a guy on the goddamn top 10 most wanted list a single fucen iota. It is literally no different than "CHANGE YOUR FACEBOOK PICTURE TO RAISE AWARENESS OF AUTISM" except you're paying someone for it.

                                I respect your right to a movement, and legitimately hope all of you enjoy this and don't let it be some sort of quick, short-lived thing that ends up being something people cling to for attention in popular media, but i'll be spending my $30 on something a little more worth my while
