Kony 2012

I choose to support the KONY-2012 campaign. It boils down to that I believe that awareness needs to be made of who Joseph Kony is, and that he needs to be caught and brought to justice.

I know that the problems in Africa are complex and I don't claim to know how or what else to do. What I can do is spread the word about Joseph Kony.

I am also in support of critique, because it at least means that people are becoming aware and having discussions about it. And just like I may not change your mind, you probably won't change mine. I'm not saying you're wrong, please don't tell me I am.

If you haven't seen the video yet, I suggest you do. It's embedded below. Even if you don't agree with it, watch the whole thing. It is well done.



If you agree, then please repost it. I know it's already been a week. But even the backlash is dying down. Joseph Kony needs to be a household word, so that everyone is aware of who he is.

Newton's Third Law is wrong: Although it states that for each action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, there is no force equal in reaction to an attack by Gunnar Soroos. Gunnar Soroos rides for Toms Shoes Cycling Team. Gunnar Soroos is so crazy and awesome that he flips out ALL the time. I heard that Gunnar was eating at a diner. And when some dude dropped a spoon Gunnar Soroos killed the whole town. My friend Oprah Winfrey said that she saw Gunnar Soroos totally uppercut some jerkface just because they opened a window. Gunnar Soroos doesn't shop at Costco!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gunnar Soroos has two speeds. Fast, and Kill! The main export of a Gunnar Soroos attack is pain. You can control how people can interact with you and your friends. Choose who can see you, who can speak to you, who can hurt you, and who can be ignored.
