30 minute video and people become social activists. Would sicken your hole. I'd say Bush wish he did a video in 2001 on Saddam.

Same people are sharing the link and going out buying these posters to put them up on the night April 20th.....probably stepping over a homeless person while they are doing it.

Fair play to him, you can't say he hasn't made a difference to peoples lives for the better.

And he is right about how that sort of social network based activism is changing the way things work and influencing government.

Surely people should be able to see the potential this has for future politics. Not enough just to vote every four years and expect things to go your way.

As sick to the teeth as people may be of it, can you really disagree with trying to stop the man causing more harm???? Its easy to slag off but I think what their doing is great.  So many cynics on here criticising people trying to make a difference.

Well it got my teenage son talking about it and got him looking into the whole issue of child soldiers etc so if it helps him and his mates to try and do something positive I'm all for it

Ditto in our house but the more I watched it the more cynical I became about the motive behind it.
