What are you guys' opinions on it? My opinion is that it's a scam. I think this because they just come up with it now instead of coming up with it 10 years ago.
It is a scam. No doubt. i could go send you lots of links to people proofing that it is. but im lazy. Only about 32% of the profit actually goes to Uganda. they have already got about 8 million us dollars( I read this somewhere, might not be true) 3 Camera of the camera guys making the movie got around 100.000 $ each for making the movie. But most people are now realizing that this is a scam. so that's good.
oh. By Kony i ment invisible children. since invisible children made the kony 2012. But. The problem is still real. I think. but the kony stuff just isn't a good way to stop it. Also. check out this picture http://i4.ytimg.com/vi/3l6i8NoQuec/hqdefault.jpg shows some of the invisible children camera crew. Hanging out with the LRA( Lord's resistance army)
I haven't seen the video because I was lazy when my friend sent me but i've read something and I could see there is a lot of people who disagree... 37% as you said, goes to uganda, 20% are salaries and administrative costs, 43% goes to "marketing", to "conscientizing" and the people think it's unbelivable: Why to spend more with marketing then the original porpouse? They had sold about 500.000 "helping kits" and we know everyone costs US$ 30. Moreover, there is the donations! We are talking of at least US$ 15.000.000 in a week. It's more than they got in 2011 which is equivalent to only US$ 9.000.000! What a amazing money!? Why to help everyone with this? Well, I don't know exactly what to say because I didn't see the video and I have read just a few lines! @Offtopic: Could you guys teach me how to say numbers as those I said before? In portuguese 15.000.000 might be "15 mi" for example. Is this available to english too!?
yea Ig thats 15 million, 6 zeroes is a million as for my opinion, there have been warlords doing that shit for all of time.
Oh thank you so much for the help! And I Agree with you. There will always have the "good side" and the bad one too! If you want know why you made a mistake with my name, take a look here: http://skcraft.com/threads/intro-and-possible-screw-up.454/#post-2874 D
Scam or not, it might help rising ppls awareness of civil wars. Here is a documentary (in 8 parts) that i guarantee is not scam: [NSFW, Gore, Not suitable for children] http://www.vice.com/the-vice-guide-to-travel/the-vice-guide-to-liberia-1
Good that you all know about Invisible Children. But the situation is really bad in africa. People die because we want our IPhones and Diamonds and Blanabbas 'n' shit. We are causing it, guys. And that will not change. Dang it.
