I just wanted let you know that there's more to the story.
It was pointed out to me here that Invisible Children, the organization behind this is far from perfect and is considered by some to be a controversial activist group. I think given the message below that it should be an obvious fact. Not everyone is going to like the call for military intervention. I'm personally okay with that. If you're not that's fine too. Much of the money this organization gathers is spent on spreading the word, instead of directly helping those in Africa. While not ideal, if they can get the word to people in power that can actually do something (and something is actually done), I think it's worth it
