The atrocities of Joseph Kony are going viral

[Son of Detroit]

My facebook is blowing up with people posting this video about Joseph Kony, the leader of the LRA in Uganda.



I expect this to be a hot topic in the next few days as more people learn about it. I think it's great that more people are becoming aware of it, but I just hope it doesn't turn into clamoring for an invasion (unfortunately I've already read comments like that on youtube).

Holy crap I was watching that while you posted it

Is it a direct threat to the US?

Seems like a very noble cause, but I'd like to see some more info and research..

Interesting timing on the release.

That doesn't mean nothing can be done about it.

Raise money and hire Xe to go in there and take out the bastard.

No. The Lord's Resistance Army is a small, nothing army.

Pfffft...I'll wager some "black op" run by our intelligence services are backing this man.

from what i have read and heard it seems like no it is not

That's what I was thinking..

They're all like, "he kidnaps kids and rapes them and gives them guns and..."

and I'm all like "uhh... so why don't they shoot him.."

Something is funny here..

That's not something to be suspicious about.

If I was abducted out of my home by scary people when I was 10 years old I would be crying and peeing my pants, not thinking about shooting someone.

this is bigger than ohbombya girl this has sentiment...

That's one of the things not to be suspicious about.

Well it's not impossible, but I'm going to wait this one out a little bit and see if anything surfaces before I go out and get my $30 Kony kit..

All of this talk about Kony is making me want a coney dog.

Mmmmmm.

The estimated strength is 500-9000

This seems like a non issue to me only because so many similiar situations exist in the world. Is it bad? yes. Do i have a responsibility to act? no. Unfortunately so many people will have thier emotions manipulated to focus on a situation so far away from home.

Instead of focusing on the crisis in america, the police state, the economy, the welfare state on the brink of bankruptcy here is just another smokescreen.

well i watched this today about an hour ago and has gone from 40,000 views to 120,000. why cant the ron paul campaign make an inspirational video like this?

Then There is no need for the US to declare War there.
However, If you feel you should do something,, pick up a good rifle and hunt Kony down.

I haven't paid much attention to Uganda since the days of Idi Amin.. A true scumbag and about as evil as this guy seems to be,,
He was protected and backed by several governments hiding and protected by Saudi Arabia till his death.
(I would have liked to collect the bounty on him)

What is the price on Kony's head?

Funny how a government sactioned killing is OK, a subject you are close to pcosmar? I dont mean to slight you but i do know your history. I am simply making a point about government.

I normally assume that atrocities in resource rich areas are CIA instigated unless there is strong evidence to the contrary.
