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

My point exactly

Not sure of the backgroud to this campaign but it might also enlighten your son also how the media can minipulate agenda's out there.

Get him to do a bit more research on the issue and the viral itself.

My Da always talked about 'the propoganda box in the corner of the livingroom' everytime the news was on.

He obviously passed on his cynicism to me.

Well I'll let my lad discover his own cynicism - As I said he's already started to look into it and that's a huge positive for me - If you can't be idealistic when you're young when can you be?

If the youth of today watched the feckn news, they would have heard of child soldiers long before this. Reality tv is a crime, children, teenagers and early 20's should be forced to watch at least 7 hours of news or current affairs a week.
Time to take a more chill-pill approach to life.

Never beat the deeler

Like the earlier comment about 'slacktivism'!

Saw on fb:
'If you're posting about Kony, I feel bad for you son. He snatched 99 kids and your status saved none.'

Anyone who didn't know about the Lords Resistance Army before this and is suddenly indignant about it should be be shot for being a stupid, uneducated, uninformed c**t......this has been going on for years why are you only copping on now ?
