David Randall Blythe, most known as the vocalist for the metalcore band Lamb of God, is running for US President.
In a bizarre, almost
insane campaign promise, he declares that, should he be elected, his first act as President, will be to be shot by a US Navy SEAL.
Yes. You read that correctly. He wants his first act as president, to be to take a bullet (non-lethal), for his country, by his own order. He then must limp and/or crawl no less than 50 yards, to an ambulance.
Why the ******** would he willingly do this?
"If I send them to war, I want them to know that I know what it's like to take one for the team".
So then, discuss:
- Would you vote for him?
- Do you think America is ready for an "against the grain" President? Heavily tattooed, heavy metal screaming, long haired son of a b***h, who can't be bought? A man who is willing to LITERALLY tell his critics to ******** themselves? A man who has nearly cut his own toe off, went to the hospital and got it stitched up, and STILL made it to the stage that same night? A man who is literally WILLING to take a bullet for his country, to make a point?
- Do you think he even has a chance?
Regardless of whether or not it's a lost fight, I at least feel better knowing there's a candidate that I can CONFIDENTLY cast my vote toward, and proudly stand beside.
Last time, I pretty much just flipped a coin, because I knew it didn't matter who I voted for, I was still not going to be happy with the result. At least this time, MAYBE I can feel proud of my own vote, win or lose.
