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
is there a way to do a poll at GAW?
Because there are many discussions regarding Biden and his so called illnesses. Some are sensitive and think poor old guy, don't make fun of a sick person, some think it's a masked actor, some think he's been gone awhile or Gitmo'd. We don't know the truth so any discussion about his dementia or parkinson's is probably irrelevant unless we know if Biden is still alive or real.. or else we're just talking about something non-existent. Why the 13 gun salutes..we can start from there.
Fact check me in case I'm wrong but this what I've got:
Biden got a salute, but with only 3 cannons (which is what you get at a funeral), and the salute was at Arlington (unlike other presidents) . Trump got a 4-cannon salute the same day.
Biden received a 13 fire “salute" which is reserved for the funeral of lower ranking service members. Just as he was sworn in before noon which defies the 20th Amendment.
All this happened as Trump is the ONLY President to leave DC on Air Force 1 and “Hail to the Chief" was played for him while exiting Marine 1 and boarding AF1
I have not seen or heard of one person here that feels sorry for or has said
Poor old guy?!?!
NOT ONE!
to be honest I don’t think anybody here really cares what happens to Joe Biden or Kamala Harris moving forward. We know neither of those two people are running for president. NEXT!
