All I'm saying is that I think there is more to this story than meets the eye.
With most Ugandans agreeing that Kony hasn't been an issue in at least 5 years, and may even be dead, I think there is something we're missing.
Propaganda is a real thing, and I'm not sure what side is pushing their propaganda the hardest, but the "Kony 2012" video is just a mashup of a video created in 2006 (not 2012), and the sassy girl made her video without any special effects (or 10 other people producing music, sound effects, etc), and it is a 2012 video.
I'm not sure which side to be on, but I'm willing to admit that. I just don't jump on one side because the "media" told me to.

And everyone agrees that we're not sure where he is... Do we need another manhunt for someone that by the locals comments hasn't been a problem in years.
How much in debt is the USA in now? How many wars do we currently have running? Should we go in further debt over another "boogyman" who hasn't done anything in 5+ years?
I say if he threatens us in a real way (with some sort of military power), we should take him out, but otherwise lets get ourselves out of debt, and raise the value of the US dollar again first... Then we can go be bullies again.
