I researched the invisible children foundation a bit before I went onto my "stickit" duty. I WILL NOT be purchasing anything from them nor donating anything to them. The video is still a good one however and I do believe that making Kony "famous" will bring awareness. If the government sees that the people care then maybe they will too. However, look how that is going for our own children in the Bill 22 war. If they don't care about our kids, why would they care about others.
Still, its good to know about this A double S.

I'm not negative except when it comes to being manipulated, and this video, make no mistake, is manipulating you. If you decide to investigate this non-profit organization and independently come to the conclusion that this is worthy of your support - then go for it. But if you just watch the video and share it and/or support them financially without a shred of any kind of scrutiny beyond your emotional reaction beyond watching the video - then you have been played. If that doesn't bother you .. then OK. Suit yourself. It bothers me however. Plus there are a number of other issues beyond the whole chain letter aspect that raise a huge number of red flags for me.
And come on. Before this video you didn't know there were warlords in Africa that do terrible things? That seems doubtful. Sorry.
