just saw 'Purge 2: Anarachy'.. laughed the whole time... it's exactly what you'd except for the most part, not a great movie at all but entertaining..

got me to thinking if it was a real thing, would i partake in purging???

not sure if i could even though it sounds like fun... what about you???

Police would just continue to do their jobs and not get paid for it. I imagine military guys would form militias to protect neighborhoods and stuff. The only place that The Purge could happen is in ghetto areas where it essentially already takes place.

I  would  purge anything  that stepped on my lawn during bunker-mode.

Im thinking most purges would be domestic purges anyhow.  "Bitch, you gotta die tonight!"

"its our right to Purge"

I would just sit on my roof behind some sandbags with plenty of Copenhagen and a thermos of coffee and shoot anything that came within 100m of my house. So it would pretty much be like sitting on post in Afghan.

Movie started out "OK", but then it turned obnoxious when they started beating you over the head with the whole Rich/Poor dichotomy thing. If you want that in the movie then at least make it subtle and keep the focus on the story of the individual characters. They got absolutely ridiculous with it, and it killed what little bit the movie did have going for it.

In a completely hypothetical scenario, I would purge: bullies, wife beaters, pedophiles, rapists, lawyers, politicians, crooked cops, and all post-1995-or-so country music artists.

so, it makes fun of white people too? most of  my former co-workers naturally figured I was rich because I am white and don't live in the hood.

It seems as though everything is about  that now.  Its always been around in popular media, I guess, but it just seems like they are beating people over the head with it now.  Can I just sit down and watch a cool movie or a TV show without being bludgeoned by ham-fisted propaganda?

"Watts Riots" were the 60's.



Korean defense of L.A. was the 90's.

Not likely. 12hrs of no law means no arrests and no charges sticking. It also means anyone they want to arrest could fight back without legal repercussions. Now if you mean they will hunt down criminals, then sure. But that's a 2 way street. I would think most would stick with protecting themselves and their families.

I could see this.

Also, I don't see people sticking to the time frame. People would start before the official start time and I don't see it ending immediately when it should. 12hrs of legal lawlessness would spin out of control.

Also, the first movie was retarded. After watching shit decision after shit decision in addition to the annoying characters I was hoping a rogue AF pilot would drop a jdam on that fucking house.
