This photo makes me angry and sad. It's a picture of a child soldier in Uganda. Every day children are stolen from their homes and forced to be tools in ridiculous wars. Boys as young as 5 are taught how to use guns and are often forced to kill their own families. Girls at the same age are forced into prostitution. It makes me mad that this is happening but what makes me even more angry is that people sit around and worry about buying the latest fashions and how their ipods aren't the latest version but they won't even send a dime to help a cause like this. We have grown way too comfortable in our lives are we are blind to everything that goes on around us. If you want to know more a great site is www.invisiblechildren.com
