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
Does anyone on here want an item with the PUNISHER on it? Yesterday my husband bought himself a Butane lighter shaped like a Zippo with a Punisher on it. It says We The People above the Punisher. I think he gave $5.00 for it at Dollar General. When he saw it he simply had to have it. Thought others might like something with Punisher on it too. Just saying.
Just looked it up. It is NOT against cops but was used by some cops in Kentucky on their police cars as a symbol of Justice. It scared the public into believing that the cops would then be shooting more people so it was taken off their cars. The police argued to keep the symbol on their cars, but the people fought against it and won. This must be why you 'think' it is against cops.
The Punisher is used by the Military as it was used as a symbol of Warfare. Punisher was a former Marine who received numerous Military Awards.
It was adopted by Marvel Comics where Punisher became the character of Frank Castle. This is a shortened version, but Punisher was a real person and so Marvel took this Marines story and made a comic of it.
Hope this answers your reply. We the People are using it as a sign of the Warfare we are going through at this time. God bless and have a happy week.
Okay. I got your point and you got mine. Thanks friend.
I did not know that. I thought it was part of Q or something.
