I've gotta say Saydrah, you're making a lot of sense here and it bothers me! I guess it's not hard to separate a fool and his money. Just ask a kid about his slain brother, show him crying and then show the bad guy responsible and say, "here's how you can help". Welp, it worked on this sap. Now that you mention it, it did seem to be a lot about the filmmakers and less about the Ugandan children. Hmmm... Dammit Saydrah, don't make me regret giving money to a hipster-do-gooder-filmmaker, I was just starting to feel good about my actions.
Question to you: What do you do as a citizen of the US when you know that there is a man out there terrorizing children? What action can you take?
