S.O.P.A. Voting for a second time, and Mayhem Fest 2012.

Okay.  I know that this was not posted sooner, but I'm posting this anyway.  Several weeks ago, I received news from my friends on my Facebook that the dang Government was passing a bill by S.O.P.A. that they were going to censor the internet completely.  For a second I thought they were going to censor explicit material from the internet to children, but it turns out they were going to censor the internet to save the entertainment industry from Piracy, and that means destroying the internet as I love and cherish completely.  I took offense to it as a lover of the internet.  I use the internet to look up hilarious Youtube videos, keep in touch with my friends on FB, and use the internet for research for my studies.  Also to keep up on my Metal Music, what awesome videogames will be coming out, ETC.  I gladly stood up in protest, and to make things shorter, my part, as well as the millions of others made a difference.  I'm glad that the bill did not go all the way, and that my interwebz is safe.  That is why I didn't make a new post on my blog.

Now onto other issues.  2012 has come, and also the race to take the Oval Office as the 45th President.  I'm not into politics, in fact I literally resent it.  But what I do understand is that this Nation needs a President who is smart, clever, has an understanding of this sticky situation we are in, and most importantly, has enough votes to kick Obama out for good.  The Candidates that are competing to win that have much publicity are Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, and Ron Paul.  My ol Man voted for Mitt Romney because he is of course Republican, and knows that giving out money to foreign nations to give us Oil, and then make us pay more money to buy their Oil is not a good idea.  Even though I despised the 2010 Gulf Spill, we have got the resources right on our back door.  And I hope that we can drill carefully and not make the same mistake.  Newt Gingrich I do not know a whole lot.  But what I do know is that I won't trust a man who Ronald Reagan did not like his ideas, and as well unfaithful to his wife.  But what I have my eyes on is Ron Paul.  He was Republican, but I think Liberitarian.  He predicted the recession of the Economy, and I think that he could get America back on its feet up and running again.  What I do find amazing is that the last time I voted was in 2010 the day after my wisdom teeth operation.  I was so messed up from meds, and extremely weak.  And now present day 2012, I have a sore throat, and voted for Ron Paul.  Let's hope my vote was a good one.

Now we go to the final topic on this post.  I looked up this years Mayhem Fest, and i was shocked.  The headlining band was of course one of my favorites Slipknot. I saw them live, and seeing them live was one of the greatest experiences of my life.  They are also with Slayer and Anthrax, two of the four greatest Thrash bands,  But then two other bands in which I literally resent are on the line up.  Devil wears Prada, and Asking Alexandria.  Now hear me out.  Mayhem Fest is supposed to be hard rock, and extreme Metal.  But allowing two bands that are suitable for Warped tour in this festival is like sacrilege. These bands make me wanna puke, and destroy all their poser fans.  The other bands I approved of.  As I lay Dying, Whitechapel, and High on fire.  I saw AILD live last year, and met two members of Whitechapel, and getting into High on Fires music.  I just sure hoe this year that all the beautiful Metalheads can release their hatred on the fans of Devil wears Prada, and Asking Alexandria, wishing that their bands were never on the line up.  Oh there will be blood.
