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 evolving
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
The calmness is interesting. This is where I think programming does come play. Many crimes happen in the public and many do not even know they were involved.
One example to me is I had a neighbors kid shooting a pellet gun at me while i was mowing the grass. I stood there and stared at him with what did look like a rifle pointed at me. It started hitting the house and putting holes in the siding. Only after he stopped and walked away it registered.
I confronted his parents and they moved in about a week after this. I did not call law or anything I was just dumbfounded and awe struck a kid had that ability.
Being calm I believe is more human nature than what we see on tv.
I dont know, the background people raise too many questions for me. their reaction almost looked like it was a pre-recorded greenscreen. it just didnt match up at ALL.
(ive also been in an area where a shooting happened in a crowd more than once and their calmness is NOT how people react)
not to mention your neighbors kid being a Dennis the Menace and an attempted assassination of Trump arent exactly similar situations. Just saying
Haha. Understandable. Just me personally have been in situations where panic doesn’t seem to happen naturally. Many people at trump rally’s will be people who served in military and police.
I can also see the blue screen scenario.
Every angle is interesting. The SS director being incompetent should be one of the first agenda items though. She should be replaced and investigated. She has it out for Trump.
