I can see both sides of the issue, but I can also see where everyone yelling it out to be a fraud is wrong. My church has worked with Invisible Children multiple times in the past few years and their causes seem to be good causes. If you want to run a company and raise awareness on such a mass level it's going to cost money... you have to spend money in the first place to earn money to put towards the cause.Yes, but everyone knows the unitarian universalists are a cult.
Also, just realized, if you go back and look at the post a picture of yourself thread... I am wearing an Invisible Children shirt there.
On a serious note: I find it funny that "Kony 2012" is becoming so well known. There are people much closer to home, in Mexico and South America, that have claimed a lot more lives than him. FARC ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolution ... f_Colombia ) uses child soldiers, and has been operating since the 1950's. One of their leaders was killed this November, and all it got is a 25 word blurb in the paper. They are also known to execute civilians, use landmines and mortars, commit kidnapping and extortion, and make their money off of the Columbian cocaine cartels. Kony is small fry compared to them.
