I'm sure most of you have heard about this by now, as its flooded everywhere on nearly all social media outlets. Basically, its a movement to find and arrest Joseph Kony of the LRA.

While I support the movement, I won't be participating in "Cover the Night" where supporters go out and put posters and stickers all over cities around the world. I know a number of foreigners in Seoul doing this, would it be considered a political rally which is illegal? I dont want some of them to get caught and face possible deportation or jail time. Anyone know the legality of this?

never heard of him

So let's litter the streets in a futile gesture just to make ourselves feel good?

You're probably fine in the political rally category because this doesn't deal with the internal politics of Korea so they could care less. Might get some sort of littering citation, but I doubt it as they'll probably just litter the streets like coupons, clubbing fliers, and cards for hookers.

I don't agree with the plastering of signs everywhere, but spreading awareness about certain issues that go neglected in the msm seems reasonable to me.

I see nothing wrong with the guy.

He's giving children employment, teaching them new skills, whilst increasing their fitness levels.

Joseph Kony, sucessfully putting infant into infantry!

Also the thread title looks like some sort of festival with an Acronym for a name. I was seriously thinking some sort of Korean-New York fest or something, perhaps serving Coney Dogs or something.

Helpful Hint: If you want to get this scumbag, don't make the hunt for him sound like some event where either you go to some boring convention center or a festival that is an excuse to drink beer.

Another perspective.

And some quotes from people I know who had a chance to meet the film makers.

The whole Kony 2012 thing is retarded. Stickers all over the city? Raise awareness?

If people care so much about the guy, they should pick up a gun, make a militia, and take the guy out. Until then, all I see are hippies and hipsters making noise so they can feel like they are doing something good, when in fact they are doing absolutely nothing.

I want my activists, that are gonna bring down a warlord, to look and talk like a lumberjack or mountain man. Not these guys that look like contemporary Christian musicians (I'm a Christian so let's not get into what you wanted to with that statement.)

These guys are transparent and it's obvious.

This is pretty funny http://i.imgur.com/K3mgn.jpg

Not to get too much in the title, but implicit in the title is that there will be a KONY 2013, which means this isn't going to work, which means its a waste of time.
