  Adding to the disturbing nature of  Invisible Childrens war mongering Kony 2012 campaign is the news that the organizations co-founder Jacob Russell, who also "starred" & directed the viral Kony 2012 video, was recently arrested for public drunkenness and public masturbation after "screaming, yelling and interfering with traffic while in various states of undress." . At a press confernece Invisible Children CEO Ben Keesey  that Russell was subsequently hospitalized for exhaustion dehydration and malnutrition and that " The past two weeks have taken a severe emotional toll on all of us, Jason especially, and that toll manifested itself in an unfortunate incident yesterday.".  As I read the report and saw the subsequent   TMZ Video    I felt like I was watching the latest Charlie Sheen meltdown not one of a supposedly respectable charity co-founder. This meltdown though, perhaps more than any thing reinforces the point of earlier post. That Invisible Children is not run by the competent level headed individuals like most respectable none profits , like say UNICEF, rather a radical, idealistic and mentally unstable group of individuals who are more interested in selling kits  and making youtube hits than actually contributing to the sollution.
