When "Kony 2012" was uploaded in YouTube by the Invisible Children, Northern Ugandans wasn't still aware of this because they have do not have an access to the Internet. Also, the Invisible Children said that Kony and the LRA has changed it's tactics by moving to Central Africa.
Together, the Ugandans watched the video. And while the video was playing, the crowd murmured of disappointments. When the video ends, the disappointments changed into anger.
The Ugandans opinions are: if Americans hate to see Bin Laden's face, and so they are. They also said that, they do understand the goal of this organisation, but they do not understand why do the Invisible Children need to make him famous in the whole world.
