FRAZIES=Kony 2012 & More

***What is Kony 2012 really? It is all about peace and safety and how people are going to stop the violence. How will normal people like you and me stop all the violence and bring peace to Uganda, to Africa. Well I will tell you how it all started with one person, just one man and "an idea" as he would say. Kony stands for Joseph Kony, a warlord of originally Uganda, Africa. He has done terrible things and somehow managed to get an army of young kids to work in his army, though he forces this on the innocent children. In some cases Kony has made young kids of ages any where from nine or ten years old or older to kill their own families. There has been murder, rape, and abduction of thousands and thousands of kids going on for years, though no one has made this come to light in the United States not until that long ago. Kony has become so big over several major cities across the globe their are supporters,volunteers, flyers, and a lot of merchandise for this. This Kony project is supposed to ended by the end of this year, it is about human rights. The right that children should not be abducted into slavery basically and should be safe at home with their famalies. No one should have the power to take away a human beings rights, not the rights Kony is taking away from all these young children and people.
***In other news I found something on google news about "pink slime" processed beef which consists grounded up cow intestine, connective tissue, and other parts that are not used in traditional beef cuts are being used in school lunches. Basically the beef meat that Hardee's, McDonald's, and other fast food restaurants use are more nutritional than this slime (grounded up beef product) kids will get for school lunch. Which is really gross in my mind. Food at school has always tasted and looked odd to me, thats why I don't like to eat it unless I have to. Now I'm not saying all food at school is like this I am just talking about the beef product some public schools will be using. Fast food places are already not the best for you on a daily basis, now why would you want your child eating something possibly worse than fast food meat for lunch on a regular basis. I don't see how some schools get away with feeding children some things, though not all school food is bad but some of it is. Also another thing I don't understand is why you buy milk at the store and it tastes like normal milk but when you drink some school milk it tastes as if it has been watered down, it does not really taste like the real deal. How to fix these issues? I don't know but its hard to pass some things up sometimes, things that are out of the ordinary.
