Recant

I am recanting my support for KONY2012 because I feel a lot of information was left out of the video with the purpose to incite people to support. This tactic I don’t believe this to be a just method for garnering support and thus, I must not support. I truly believe in the equality and honesty of all people and the video, while emotional and factual on some counts omits a lot of the truths. It wasn’t until I (and many of you) began digging deeper. I must admit, I too acted on emotion and was all for the support, but in learning some of the truths, I just can’t fully support this movement. I do believe, whether or not the torment continues Kony (and others like him) should be punished for their past actions. I support Kony’s capture and prosecution when that time comes, but cannot support the KONY2012 movement put out by Invisible children.

I found a pretty interesting article I thought I’d share about this as well. http://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/invisible-children-hides-truth-article-1.1041118?pgno=1
