C'mon!
Oh puhlease!
This flower-power, hippie, grassroots bullshit advocated in this video is nonsense.
If people really wanna stop this monkey tyrant, they'll get on a plane, grab some guns, and head off into the jungle to hunt him down and gut him like the pathetic excuse of a human being he is.
Asking the U.S. government to pretty please send some army men to fight Kony is just lame.

Love your enemies!

I hear that Dog the Bounty Hunter has reasonable fees.
Better yet if he video tapes it!

Re: C'mon!
I think it is just another African scam to get money from people. Kony has been out of Uganda for a few years now; the "war" is over already. Odd that the government of Uganda is just as bad but nothing is said about them. something smells funny here indeed.
The whole continent is rife with corruption. But I guess that's the nature of the colonial legacy. And since it's our fault, I suppose it's our job to fix the shit too.

Love your enemies!

Re: C'mon!
not OUR fault. It the Europeans and the UKians fault.
We have prospered unimaginably from the rape of the third world; this includes countries in Africa colonized by Europeans even after the establishment of the U.S.
This makes us responsible.

Love your enemies!

Re: C'mon!
its not our job to correct the distant past, nor fix mistakes when we ourselves have no money to do such things
Get real, Phat. We have plenty of money to do these things. It's time to stop pretending that the millionaire in the mansion on the hill is poor because he didn't get his tax break this year.
and when we ourselves were not directly responsible
We prospered from it. We still prosper from it. We are still responsible for it.
This is the 21st century
Which is why I would think we could act more civilized than 'let them rot; they ain't our mess to clean up'.
there is work needing done here...in the States.
Sure... But who says we cannot also do work there? Or, are you against job creation?
