Joseph Kony has been enslaving kids for years and having them murder their own parents and other unfortunate victims. Some other unluckier kids have been raped and murdered. Some people are questioning if it’s really happing. Some sources are saying the organization, Kony 2012 is not true, and that it all is a scam and not all the money is going to the victims over in Africa. Other sources have to disagree with the subject at hand.

Sources such as Washington Times Communities, have to agree that Kony 2012 is real and should brought to justice and that what he is doing is wrong. Other sources like, Guardian.com, disagree and thinks that the whole thing is and is not happening.

Kony is a Ugandan guerrilla group leader, head of the lord’s Resistance Army, a group engaged in a violent campaign to establish theocratic government based on the Ten Commandments throughout Uganda. He believes that God wants him to do the things he is doing. Kony has abducted and forced an estimated 66,000 children to fight for him, and forced internal displacement of over two million people since one rebellion began in 1986. He kidnaps and brainwashes children into fighting and makes them kill civilians.

The children that have been raped and forced to kill other people have been fighting. Now that Kony is known, he can be brought down. Where do the children go after he gets punished for what he did? Well, some sources say that if you donate money that these kids will get a better life.
Guest Post wrote that Kony has not been in Ugandan for six years. They also state that Obama has sent 100 troops there and had no results in finding Kony. Is Joseph Kony Real or Fake?
