The Fierce Urgency of Now!

"The war in northern Uganda has been called the most neglected humanitarian emergency in the world today. For the past 23 years, the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) and the Government of Uganda (GoU) have been waging a war that has left nearly two million innocent civilians caught in the middle. The GoU's attempt to protect its citizens from this rebel militia has largely failed, resulting in an entire generation of youth that has never known peace."

Joseph Kony for the last 23 years has been "offing" anyone and everyone that he so desires. More recently his actions have been more brutal and he has been abducting innocent children and making them be child soldiers and if they don't go and don't kill when Kony says kill then they will be killed. If they escape from their abduction and Kony's army (the Lord's Resistance Army) finds them, then they will re-abduct just to kill them.

I mean come on. Enough is enough! He's killing people and he's been doing it for 23 years and now its spreading to the surrounding countries of Northern Uganda, but there is a way to help.

First. Go Here!

Second. Sign the petition

Third. Give $5 bucks of your money to help the children

Fourth, Fifth, etc. Email, call, or send letters to your congressmen and congresswomen and your state representatives and ask them to sign the bill we now have in play, "LRA Disarmament and Northern Uganda Recovery Act"

We have to stand up for those that can't stand up for themselves.
