    Do you really think a bunch of well-off people will go into the depths of Uganda and Africa to track down a guy who's been missing for 6 years(?), and who may even be dead, for all we know?

    Was it ever proven? No.

    Has it been proven that he is alive? Yes. How? By all the current crimes that he has committed.

    Plus say if he is dead. The LRA is still there.

    How do we know he's alive?

    Wrong... He's been in hiding.

    So? If the head of another terrorist organisation was to die, the whole organisation wouldn't rot now would it?

    No need to be a d1ck about something you don't know , or don't feel on your own skin. Sure you are safe in your luxury apartment , with cable , internet , and phone , while those kids there have nothing of those yet they are happy. Well until someone ruins even that little something they have , A LIFE!

    Now we got all the technology in the world to help them , and we could , because we could , easily , but the problem is , everyone cares , exactly as much as you do. If Binladen bombs 2 towers in USA , well lets search for him on the moon too , he needs to die. But if someone slays a couple of thousands of children , and turns the rest into child soldiers who also slay and kill their parents , brothers , after being brainwashed , meh ... who cares? It's Africa after all. The tourist paradises in Africa are safe , so who cares about the rest?

    Now I've seen some interesting videos on Youtube too , like "So what if we stop him , its not like one of those children's don't take his place". Right , so it's not like any German wont take Hitler's place , or any middle east bearded man won't take Binladen's place.

    People need to relaize that th eonly reason the people are working for Kony, is because he is threathning them / forcing them.

    If kony were to get captured, the LRA would disband, or lessen in numbers QUICKLY.

    Excuse my horrible grammar and spelling upthere.

    Wishful thinking? I don't think you realize the reason that many wish to leave the LRA.

    If Kony gets captured, NO ONE will be controlling them. Kony is similar to Hitler in a way, as been said above did anyone take Hitlers position? No. Cause they lost the war. In this case, Kony WILL lose the war.

    Kony's loyalists choose to ally with him.
    Hitler's loyalists chose to ally with him.
    You can't kill an idea.
    Also, the war was lost due to poor planning. If hitler died before the war ended (say 4 years before), there were plenty of loyal nazi's willing to command the reich.

    Re: KONY 2012: Part II - Beyond Famous

    I'm all for stopping Kony and all, I just don't trust Invisible Children anymore.
    After reading numerous articles pointing out a LOT of faults and evidence of them doing stupid ass shit.

    For example, Invisible Children only use approx 30~ of the money they make to give to charity. That "charity" is funding the Ugandan army and buying weapons.
    '
    Looks awesome, doesn't it?

    I wouldn't mind them funding the Ugandan army, I really wouldn't, IF they werent just as bad as Kony in many ways. For example, the Ugandan army kills homosexuals AND they recruit child soldiers, (Isn't that what Invisible Children is trying to prevent amongst other things?).
    Now there's no real death penalty against homosexuality in Uganda, however they still put them in jail and kill them there, young girls are being raped to "cure the sickness" (which is homosexuality). ETC.

    I'm not sure how much of this is true, and how much isn't. HOWEVER Invisible Children has lost my trust. (The founder masturbating in public high on drugs, and Invisible Children not confronting ANY accusations against them, doesn't really help either.)

    Just my two cents, but anyone is free to believe them as much as they want, I moved my cash and support to other charity organisations that didn't just come to my attention 2 months ago lol.

    I'm just saying, before you follow someone because they made a REALLY touching video (I fucking nearly cried, seriously). And give them money, check out what they are really doing with that money, and what you are supporting. And only support the people that DESERVE your support!

    Re: KONY 2012: Part II - Beyond Famous

    Tbh, Even as retarded as these guys are they're just trying to make a difference its a lot better then what any one of you critics are doing.. I understand they have there flaws and I don't really support them.. but, I'm choosing to view this as a opening for other ideas to do more good with this same idea.

    I mean there's so many issues out there.. like global warming for one, yeah who gives a shit I'll die before anything bad happens? yeah and what about your children and there children.. I look at this video in a way to help my future generation civilization just humans, I hate the human species.. we fight our selves.. we do so much damage for greed we don't share we have no respect we are disgusting. I have this theory that aliens exist and wont visit us because if they have the technology to come here they would most likely have the technology to spy and research us, and should know how pathetic we are so they choose not to interact in spite of there survival.

    I don't have anything against people just trying to do good.. yeah they make take a heap of profit but so what.. Can you put a value on saving someone's life giving them a better life, Do you ever sit down and think this is your only life.. one life, you don't need to be watching our for bad people and scares for food/water or diseases, yeah you can still get sick and die where every you live or be murdered.

    This video hasn't changed me I changed me before this video lol.. I was going through my phases of depression and reality acceptance. Everyone is so quick to judge and bash on things because they're not perfect.

    If you think they're doing it wrong then why don't you try to run a charity and see the exceptions you need to make, why don't you go out there and do it better?

    I myself couldn't see myself running a charity I'd love to help those who are misfortunate, but I wouldn't know where to start.. meh anyway I'm done with my ramble

    The Ugandan army has done the same shit the LRA has in Congo in the past... Which is the real evil here? They are willing, and we make them able!

    Well, Just because you don't think they are doing it right doesn't mean you have to start your own charity, you can just go to another charity that isn't a big scam or that doesn't take a big part of the profits for themselves.
    Just saying.
