FUCK KONY

Post by Ginto8 »


There aren't many causes I'd get behind, but this, without a doubt, is one of them.
Quit procrastinating and make something awesome.

Have you guys seen this clip?
http://www.worldstarhiphop.com/videos/v ... 0re9j8X31h

For me, it's important to know what both sides are saying. It's just stupidity to watch one single movie and totally agree on any points blindly.
That's what most of the people on the web are doing, as far as I have seen.

This man is certainty doing bad stuff, but Invisible Children DO tend to blow things up, to get as much attention as possible.

Please, if you have only watched that single movie, try to look it up more in depth to know what you are supporting, and what this actually is all about.

(I am supporting this group, don't get me wrong. It's just healthy to be a little skeptical sometimes. Don't be a sheep.)

Yeah, the more I look into it the more suspicious this seems. For instance, listen to this Ugandan girl's insider opinion on the "facts" presented in the video.



Don't buy the bullshit action kit.. it's a total scam.
