I heard about Kony a while back in documentaries not just in this new cyber awereness thing that's going on right now Wichita I think is awesome btw, my response was about the way some members viewed the problem . I totally understand that its not the US problem but it is a world problem that should be adressed in some way.

Talk about world police, I'm for stopping him and putting an end him and everything he has done. But I don't think we as a nation would really gain anything other then more debt from this. So I guess I'm in the middle.
No child should have to go through that...

+1 Dude sucks for sure... but why is it our problem? There's plenty of strong nations much much closer that could do something about it. The US really needs to stop policing the world. Especially since it's not like we're being paid to do so... It's like we're Batman... a wealthy vigilante that takes it upon himself to police society... except unlike Batman who is independently wealthy, the US is policing the world using taxpayer money and the very lives of our men and women in the armed forces...
If the US should happen to do anything about this guy, at MOST it should just be a drone strike. Don't risk any American personnel over this shit. Drop a laser guided bomb on his face and be done with it.

The Kony BS is probably one sided and there probably is another side to the story. I am not going to spend 25 minutes to watch some propaganda.

Agreed. There is genocide and all kinds of horrible stuff happening around the globe. Why all of a sudden this guy?
My friend also brought up a good point: anybody ever heard of Sam Childers?

So if you're walking and a girl is getting raped, do you continue to walk and ignore the fact a girl is being raped. Cause with your guys reasoning your answer would be how is this my problem a girl is being raped. It is our problem because we have the ability to do something. The u.s. isnt stupid and won't enter unless we would gain something from getting involved.

this a problem that needs to be stopped , dirty sally just be thankful that you werent born there. Other than that , what you wrote is ridiculously ignorant. But hey you have a right think however you want because you were born in a free country.
It is a problem, but is it our problem?

+1, who cares. Just kids and women who get no chance.

Nothing much but after 9/11 something had to be done in Afghanistan. It will be back to status quo as soon as we leave just like when the Russians left in the 80's. [ March 08, 2012, 10:48 PM: Message edited by: fstryde3 ]
