By now you know who Joseph Kony is.
I don't need to tell you.
I'm ecstatic the video went viral so quickly, frankly I shouldn't have been surprised.
And now the backlash.

Of course Invisible Children, the company behind Kony2012.com isn't perfect. But at least they aren't standing by ignorantly and letting passivity take over. They are TRYING to do SOMETHING.
People focused on the negative aspects bug me. All the negative feedback may be true, but people are talking. Isn't that enough? 13 million views on YouTube, they've done something right.  Even if only 1 million people actually DO something out of that 13 million....that's something.
It's impressive to watch on Facebook and Twitter...to watch the message spread, just by people sharing. I mean, isn't that we all learn in kindergarten? How to share?
And if you watched Kony 2012 and you watched Jacob break down, and still felt nothing but negativity, then you are cold and dead inside. Jacob would rather DIE to be with his brother again, rather than live through that hell. That's how bad it is. Multiply that by thousands and thousands. The point I'm making is...I don't know, really. I'm just thinking out loud.

 It's good to be informed. It's good to want to know both sides of the story. But don't let that stop you from trying to do good, from trying to BE good.
I hope that in 3 months, people are still talking about this. I hope Kony does make it on the cover of the magazines, and that he's not just the soup of the day.

I hope he and his fellow bad guys are stopped.
