vanfullofretards Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Re: kony 2012 In October 2011, Obama authorized the deployment of approximately 100 combat-equipped U.S. troops to central Africa.[18] They will help regional forces “remove from the battlefield” Joseph Kony and senior LRA leaders. "Although the U.S. forces are combat-equipped, they will only be providing information, advice, and assistance to partner nation forces, and they will not themselves engage LRA forces unless necessary for self-defense," Obama said in a letter to Congress.

Africans been doing that since forever. For as long as I've been alive (a lot longer than you) there's been stories on the news about child (actual children, not just 16,17 year olds) soldiers in Africa who were abducted from their families and forced into the militant life. Shit, who you think captured the slaves that were sold to white people back in the day? /noracist. /blame it on capitalism/greed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eviltrailer77 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Re: kony 2012 I hate to agree w/ DAO... But he is right Africa has always been a shit hole of war and rape and ethnic cleansings for as far back as I can remember and that's longer than I care to admit to. Is it right? Not by any means. Will an internet petition do anything to change it, no. The US has been stepping up involvement in Africa for a while now. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_Joint_Task_Force_–_Horn_of_Africa My old room-mate is there, and he has told me the guys they are training over there have said to them point blank that they don't want us there and the sooner we leave the sooner they can get back to killing. The cultural/tribal feuds run deeper than we could possibly understand and all we are doing now is teaching them to be better killers, more efficient, more tactically sound. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

!DoNkE*PuNchA!

Dose-ink Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Re: kony 2012 There's a bigger message than just going after one guerilla leader in Africa, they're trying to prove that if people yell loud enough eventually somebody with authority will chime in. Take it for what it's worth, but give buddy props for how fast he's spreading this message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soup forgot his password Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Re: kony 2012 It's really hard to join a cause when the leader sounds like a liberal moron with a faggy pop punk/emo new found glory haircut and has a bunch of white college kids standing around in matching band shirts yelling like they're making a change. I also hate his government reliance and ignorance to american politics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sayWORD? Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Re: kony 2012 i still remember your faggot haircut and douchey political commentary from years back. after posting your picture on that beard growing thread, i find it ironic you would be slandering anyones hairstyle, much less insulting someone for being a hipster. :lol: deal wit it son. that being said, i cant help but wonder if all those march for darfur supporters have just bandwagoned over to this noble cause because facebook said so. i do agree with dao and a few others that this shit is horrendous, has been going on in africa for years now, and that something must be done. if social media can inspire something this big, and achieve change, i think its being far better utilized than for posting some broads drunken birthday exploits. There's a bigger message than just going after one guerilla leader in Africa, they're trying to prove that if people yell loud enough eventually somebody with authority will chime in. Take it for what it's worth, but give buddy props for how fast he's spreading this message. ^^agree wholeheartedly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crime stoppers Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Re: kony 2012 another 12oz romance blossoming... and i completely agree with soup, it can be as good a cause as any, but if faggot hipsters are on board, im instantly against it. and the whole "if we yell loud enough, someone will listen" pretense; although its a good reason to get motivated, i guarantee you 90 percent fo the assholes on FB (even a lot in my network) are doing this just to 'appear' as though they care, and because veryone else is doing it.
