    GET INVOLVED. STOP AT NOTHING. THE WORLD MUST KNOW.

    I dare you to stop scrolling through your dashboard. Stop checking your Facebook newsfeed that you’ve already checked two seconds ago. Stop updating your Twitter and seeing what your favorite celebrities are saying. Stop watching funny and nonsense videos on Youtube. Take time to educate yourself to MAKE A DIFFERENCE in this world. This is your chance! WATCH THIS VIDEO.

    Let’s make JOSEPH KONY Famous!!

    Who is JOSEPH KONY?

    He is THE WORST LIVING CRIMINAL. He abducts children and makes them use guns to kill their own parents. He takes girls and forces them to be sex slaves. He calls his abducted children the Lord’s Resistance Army, AKA the LRA. He has abducted over 30,000 children and forced them to be child soldiers in Central Africa. He remains at large because he is INVISIBLE to the world. FEW know his name, even FEWER know his crimes. WE ARE MAKING HIM FAMOUS! Because when he is, the world will unite against him and demand his arrest.

    We can help make a change. We can make a difference.

    I feel so inspired. I feel the need to help and make a difference. This has to happen in 2012. We can’t let him go around and keep doing this to children in Central Africa. Let’s make his name known so he can be stopped. HE CAN NO LONGER BE INVISIBLE!

    REBLOG IF YOU CARE.

    This will not make your blog ugly, please take a moment to reblog and get the word out. SHARE THIS TO EVERYONE! Be a part of something BIG and when they catch this man, you would be able to say.. “I HELPED.”

    LET’S START HERE ON TUMBLR.

    Best 30 minutes i have ever spent in my life. Joseph Kony must be stopped. What he is doing is absolutely horrific and i cannot believe that this is actually happening. This video right here has inspired me too actually go out and do something about this. Reblog this too get the word out and WE MUST STOP JOSEPH KONY.
