So these people at the Invisible Children have been blowing up the facebooks and the youtubes trying to make "Joseph Kony famous, not to celebrate him, but to raise support for his arrest and set a precedent for international justice." They recently posted a short documentary about Kony and his world crimes which is linked below but some men lazy so things in a nutshell is that Joseph Kony is a Ugandan guerilla group leader, head of the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA). He's been kidnapping children and recruiting them for the past 20+ years. The Invisible Children movement trying to make him infamous world wide so the US government can assist Uganda military in arresting Kony.

He needs to be stopped, this is a great movement regardless of what alot of people are saying about what they are using the funds for.
that makes absolutely no sense. you are giving funds to the ugandan army to fight kony when they in fact use child soldiers. don't b a brainwashed american.
That is not so, the Americans do things as an investment. Seeing that they are doing this they will take some oil as payment.
