Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I was scrolling across Fakebook keeping up with the family, when as usual these suggested pages pop up. This particular one is about the Confederate Flag, I'm like ok. I remember living in SC when the putrid Nikki Hailey had them removed from the Capitol and State buildings because she is an awful, abhorrent person.
You know about the flag being so controversial, racist, white supremacy , etc... it was just a battle flag for Lee. I cant help anything after that... we are the south, we are gonna rise again!
How come that gay pride flag that offends so many can be flown? It's Not a part of Any Heritage, Any War fought, any Battle field where men or women died? Fighting for beliefs, freedom or anything , but that gay flag it to hurt our children, to be pedophile, and sick and harm. The Confederate flag was not meant to be that. And it got taken down. And we can't stop even the White House from putting it up!?
Yes, I get , movie, bh ,wh. etc.. just wondering. Like I said. Saw that made me think. Lol.
