My Impression on KONY 2012.

While watching the KONY 2012 documentary...

1 minute into it: Good beginning, nice phrase at the start.

3 minutes into it: Fairly dramatic music, as well as more reasons to watch a half hour video

5 minutes into it: Speechless

10 minutes into it: Still engaged in the video. Thinking of how terrible a man Kony is.

15 minutes into it: More of the backstory towards Kony.

20 minutes into it: Whoa... I feel bad for the children facing the terrible sins of Kony.

25 minutes into it: There's a huge cost to two chunks of metal, 2 pieces of string, and a bunch of posters?

28 minutes into it: Even after explaining why funding is appreciated, why do we need him to become a celebrity? I mean George Clooney wants Kony to be well known. EVERYONE SEES CLOONEY!!!

30 minutes into it: Its over...

My opinion on the KONY 2012 organization is that it has a great cause. I see very much potential in it, and the Pros outweigh the Cons. The Pros are vast and self-explanatory. The Cons however, are fairly subtle. The money going to the TRI organization (part of KONY 2012) has not been specified, and neither has the amount needed been specified. I don't oppose the KONY 2012 organization, but the amount of money needed for the organization must be specified in order for people to feel safe giving their money to strangers.


Do watch the video in order to understand what I have said.
