Hello all!
I wasn't exactly sure where to put this but I figured this is a fairly appropriate section of the forums. I don't think anyone else has posted about this yet, either, which is amazing! But it got very big over the last 48 hours, particularly here in Australia.
The video IS 29 minutes long, but please trust me when I say it is 110% worth it.
KONY 2012 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4MnpzG5Sqc#)
Joseph Kony is a man in Uganda who abducts children and turns them into soldiers and sex slaves, he forces them to kill their parents and has abducted over 30,000 kids in the past 20 years. Invisible Children is the campaign that is fighting him and Kony 2012 is the campaign they have launched to make him famous worldwide so he can't keep avoiding the Ugandan and American troops who are trying to find him and put him away.
The video explains why 2012 is the significant year for this cause. Please, take the time to watch it. It has really changed my perspective on the world and I'm sure it will touch the heart of all of you lovely people as well if you have not heard of it previously.

Spread this like wildfire!!
Or even better, spread it like herpes bitches!
My school is usually retarded when it comes to things like this, so once I go back to school(spring break) if everyone is still oblivious,
I plan on printing out a bunch of little signs and putting them around my school. Everyone needs to know.
If we can make a difference with this, we prove the world we can change anything if we all stick together.
What he said is true about the hierarchy turning upside down. Now I say it's time to change some ->-bleeped-<- around here.
