What ever happened to "Kony"

MonaPizza · 22-10-2013 10:54pm #1

Seriously.

What ever happened to him and the "Lord's Resistance Army" ?

Kinda just went away even though there was loads of talk about the cnut.
Remember the T-shirts, "Kony 2012" and the bracelets and the posters?

Whatever happened to Kony?

Insect Overlord · 22-10-2013 10:55pm

He wasn't really on our list of enemies.

joe swanson · 22-10-2013 10:56pm

Who?

delw · 22-10-2013 10:57pm

I Kony care :P

General General · 22-10-2013 10:57pm

He headed off to the shops for some jars of mussels & some potted herrings in case he got famished before dinner...

nullzero · 22-10-2013 10:58pm

Didn't the man who made the video turn out to be a raving lunatic? I heard he was arrested for public nudity and inappropriate behaviour( pulling his wire)

MonkstownHoop · 22-10-2013 10:59pm

He was abducted by Roma Gypsies

EoghanIRL · 22-10-2013 11:00pm

It wasn't real in the first place.

bennyc · 22-10-2013 11:01pm

They got enough "likes" and he went away

Was Paraguay bound last I checked

wretcheddomain · 22-10-2013 11:03pm

They found out he didn't have any oil to his name.

Vicar in a tutu · 22-10-2013 11:04pm

He was a phony

keith16 · 22-10-2013 11:05pm

They took back the night, but when they looked inside, Kony was already gone. Last seen heading in the direction of the day.

Taking back the day sounded stupid so they just gave up.

Howard Juneau · 22-10-2013 11:06pm

He's playing centre forward for Everton these days.

He wouldn't stand out as much as the blue eyed. Blonde haired one's though.

Muise... · 22-10-2013 11:14pm

He wasn't muslim enough to be a threat to world peace.

anncoates · 22-10-2013 11:22pm

He became so over in January 2013.

theblaqueguy · 22-10-2013 11:24pm

I murdered him and threw his body into the ocean Osama bin laden style

Richard Hillman · 22-10-2013 11:56pm

He turned his life around and he is now helping out at the local soup kitchen.

Wattle · 23-10-2013 12:19am

Dropped by his record company I believe.

shruikan2553 · 23-10-2013 12:25am

Another wagon turned up so we all grabbed our starbucks coffee, iPads, iPhones and macbooks and jumped on that one to save the world somewhere else.

dd972 · 23-10-2013 12:36am

Didn't Bob Geldof say he was going to kill him?

Van the man sitchy-ation

Tombi! · 23-10-2013 2:00am

The man who made the video was pretty much doing it for money.
Kony is real, I think but like everything that goes viral, it dies out eventually.

sabat · 23-10-2013 3:17am

Killed in combat a couple of weeks ago apparently-some footage has leaked onto the net:

Cookie_Monster · 23-10-2013 3:42am

He's not got any oil that needs protecting by the west.

Citroen2cv · 23-10-2013 7:35am

They still make suspension parts:

CrazyRabbit · 23-10-2013 1:28pm

He's alive and well, still kidnapping children to be used as soldiers and sex slaves. It's just not as popular to want him dead anymore.

FutureGuy · 23-10-2013 1:31pm

Playing for Everton as far as I know. Unfortunately, the arrival to Romelu Lukaku from Chelsea has seen him fall down the pecking order in recent weeks.

marshbaboon · 23-10-2013 1:39pm

Legend tells he was crushed under an avalanche of Facebook likes. Only a brown smear remained. Like a bourneville bar that was left out in the sun.

readyletsgo · 23-10-2013 2:11pm

I guess he was a fad like everything that is a 'Like' on FB.

But really, what actualy has happened to Kony? Is he still kidnapping kids and making them into soldiers and sex slaves? or is he dead?

Jonny7 · 23-10-2013 2:17pm

The AU is still hunting him, there's a price on his head (and a few other unsavory characters) but so far he's still at large butchering and enslaving

No idea what happened to the rather delicate activists who launched the video, believe one of them suffered a complete breakdown from the fame/criticism. They had another video out but it didn't do "as well" as the first, so they probably didn't get invited to as many Manhattan parties or get as many facebook likes.

biko · 23-10-2013 2:20pm

He was hired by Kony Island, Brooklyn, New York City, and spends his days on the roller coasters and water rifles.

RikkFlair · 23-10-2013 3:09pm

I remember seeing some big Facebook Kony event that a number of my friends were due to attend, did that ever happen?

What did it involve, organizing a search party to find him?

Menas · 23-10-2013 4:46pm

He is making elevators.

Auldloon · 23-10-2013 5:30pm

Lots of info here and an interesting read
