Just watching The Purge;

In real life, if such a night happened would many people act out on it?

Free to kill anybody with no repercussions....
 
Oh yes, watched that and the second one earlier in the year.

Would I kill anyone?

I think I'd be happy to go and clear out the prisons of paedos, rapists, murderers and armed robbers (I'm not so bothered by robbers with legs) It would save a fortune and then the country (countries) could really concentrate on rehabilitating anyone left.

Possibly I'd wipe out anyone that puts wind chimes in their gardens as well, they're not really productive members of society! :3:

You?

(I mean you as in, what would you do, not that I'd purge you!)

No legal repercussions perhaps.

It takes a certain type of person to take life without suffering the mental repercussions.



 
thought about this for a while. Dont think I'd kill them, but make a mess of them, and his side kicks. Guess who :17: .......our own yankie doodle Randy Lerner, Foxy Tom the narative coffee boy we got off Arsenal. Paddywhatever his name is and that German bloke.
I tell you what, they would'nt feck another club up, and I would really enjoy doing it. Made me feel better that has. :19: :19:
 
NO! I would have done once. That was the ex. For 2 years before and 2 years after an abused wife/me/partner etc. can kill the abuser in stone sober cold heartedness with no remorse. I have to say that is true, because yes I could have.

When he turned on our eldest when he was 15 that was enough. I am not talking of a quick slap whether you agree with it or not. I am talking out and out violence. That was it. We were gone. No more! I should have gone to the police. I didn't. I can't change it. My head was fcuked! When i did finally go they didn't want to know as I hadn't done it at the time. Times have apparently moved on since 2000 with this. Though I am not so sure. The police are overworked and they aren't given the amount of training they really should have.

Anyway yes I could have done it then with or without repercussions. Not today and not for along time. Ex is a prisoner anyway. A prisoner of his head and emotions. Boys have nothing to do with him by there own choice. Eldest didn't from after we left.

My daughter the only 1 that does, even that is now T.G only by Skype as he is not allowed into where she lives in Canada due to deportation. You really couldn't make it up, especially as he is now in The U.S. How did he get in their? Have you got a week? People say soaps aren't true should try our story.

Anyway I digress as usual, the yes is yes once, not now and not for a long time I am pleased to say. I wouldn't want to be carrying that much hatred in my heart still as the only person it traps is me.

To forgive doesn't let him off the hook. It lets me off the hook
 
Yes, a lot of people.

But bad people, so while Fear takes care of the scum in the prisons, I'd go after politicians, bankers, CEOs of filthy corporations etc.

From rapists and paedos to corrupt elite war mongers, I'd have no qualms about killing them at all. It's our duty to clean up the planet

 
A World without Govern/Law/rules & "being told what to do", it seems a nice ideology, the thought of total freedom.

But could the human race be trusted without law/rules? How much does the law/rules play in anyone not taking another life?

I think loads of people would act out on a purge night(initially) - so its amazing how much the law plays in suppressing humanity and their natural instincts. But I wonder if a harmony in mankind would be reached without the law.

I guess it just comes down to morals and common sense. Any sane person doesn't need laws, rules or religion to tell the difference between right and wrong. We could get into those morals all night.

In a world without governance, sooner rather than later, rules and laws would be applied.

 
I've had a good think about this, and guess what, I could do away with any member of daesh - not a problem at all. I think I could manage the praise and thanks.

Only by those that seek the need to inflict power over others - and with a purge night, I think these people could be eliminated.

This is why I wonder, "eventually" would a perfect harmony be reached amongst humanity?

Can we live and be trusted to be all equal, with no hierarchy?
 
Same here pride. Normal humans who i just dont get on with no way.... evil terrorists and people who support them... yes. I could do it numerous times and sleep well.

Rapists. Paedos. Murderers themselves. Again, i would have no problem with. Although two wrongs dont make a right people like that should not be alive anyway.
 
I think the reality is we can all think we can do it however in that moment of experience could we really!!!

I remember my late Uncle saying 'kill or be killed' was the nearest he got to saying much about the front-line was for him in WW2. That is as close as he got to sharing anything. The war changed him for ever as it has thousands before then and after with all the conflicts

I agree with you GT! Freedom is not about there being no consequences. Laws are there for a purpose bought about the consequences of no laws or/and people to enforce.

Without laws there would be anarchy as people would think they could do what they want and get away with it. Indeed there are people who still think they can or do not have the social skills and think they can do whatever they want whether it be through extreme mental illness or otherwise.

Laws are there for a reason

Of course we can't. Look at any group of people, or Apes for that matter, no matter how large or small, ad there is a form of hierarchy. Even your Church has one, indeed it has one of the strictest.

A purge wouldn't help. People would be out to kill you as much as you want to kill others.

Oh, and the film was crap, and I won't be bothering with the second one.

Genuinely think yes for me. As long as their dossier showed what scum they were, I don't think I'd have a problem, in fact I've always fancied having a go on a firing range so it could be two birds with one stone really, call it a hobby if you like!!!!!!!!

:25:
 
I sod that, I can't be arsed if you have to apply for warrants and such stuff, I'm a busy man...
