Hey guys, I'm Court McGinley and welcome back to the most amazing top 5.
Let's jump right into our list of What if the Purge was real in America for 24 hours.
Alright, let's start off with--Double the time- well for one thing the purge is supposed
to only last for 12 hours so if it lasted 24 hours that would make it double the time
which means it would probably cause double the damage- and double the number of killings.
I mean in 12 hours you can get a lot done but imagine what you could do with 24 hours.
But then also on the other hand for the people trying to mind there own business that’s
double the time they have to be trapped indoors- who wants to be barricaded down in their house
for 24 hours- I know I wouldn’t.
I mean with 12 hours you can at least get a decent amount of sleep but 24 hours is just
too long.
And then that’s just all this extra time that you have to be worrying about if the
people you love are safe.
Also, I feel like after 12 hours if you're purging you should’ve been able to get your
aggression out.
If you're going on a killing spree for literally 24 hours I feel like it would be hard to stop
the person once 24 hours is up -like they would just want to keep going because they
would now be in a rhythm with it.
Yeah to have the purge actually happen at all would be horrible- never mind expanding
it to 24 hours.
For our next point lets talk about --Merch- this one a little silly but that doesn’t
stop it from being true.
In the day and age were in right now merch is made up for everything – like literally
everything.
In the movie, there's a bunch of weapons and a lot of interesting homemade costumes.
And then there's probably my least favorite thing all of the freaky homemade masks.
Yeah, apparently people are big on wearing vision blocking masks when they're murdering
people.
I don’t get it but then again I wouldn’t be a part of this whole thing if it were to
happen- so anywho.
So yeah I feel like the purge merch would be treated like festival merch- you know-just
all this merch And these crazy costumes would be for sale.
With the merch, there would probably be a little mascot that would be created as well.
Yeah, it would just be a huge thing.
The teens buy into anything these days so this would be a hit.
Christmas has ugly sweaters- valentines day had flowers and chocolates- the purge would
have something too.
Come purge time the drugstores would just have an aisle filled with purge themed merchandise.
--For our next point I think –Canada needs to be mentioned- Seeing as Canada shares a
border with America I can see this not ending well.
I just would see this day spilling over onto Canadian soil so easily.
Like no one's going to be guarding the borders on the US side- it would just get really out
of hand.
Canada and the Us probably wouldn’t be civil after this.
And this one 24 hours long purge would cause huge problems down the line for the 2 countries.
The laws we have here in Canada would obviously still apply but I'm assuming some people would
get brave and try and see what they would get away with.
There's already enough negativity going on in this world- we don’t need to add a purge-
let alone a 24-hour purge into the mix.
But on the other hand, I could also see Canadians trying to offer safe houses for those who
have families with young children who don’t want to participate.
But then again the States could view that as Canada trying to mess up what they have
going on and that could end badly too.
Just too many issues.
So coming off of Canada lets talk about- Anti-Anarchy- If the purge lasted a whole 24 hours I could
definitely see people who are against it ban together into self-enforcing communities.
There are currently people who fight for injustice and what they believe is right- so I could
see that only being made stronger if the purge happened for real.
I feel like as much as the violence grew so would the attempts to stop it.
A true battle of good vs evil.
Sadly I feel in this battle evil would come out on top as they just have literally everything
they need at their disposal.
And this night would literally turn a good person bad.
As I mentioned before there are probably people out there who otherwise would never consider
killing someone.
But give them a prime opportunity-the ability to be anonymous and a get out of jail free
card and you never know what someone could be capable off
-For our next point, I think we need to talk About the--Economy- this would terribly affect
the economy if it just lasted 12 hours never mind 24 hours.
People who specifically target certain businesses- and they could literally destroy millions
or even tens of millions of dollars in assets and inventory if given 24 hours.
They could literally cause a business to go bankrupt.
Putting murder aside of the moment- there are other really destructive things that can
be done such as embezzlement- fraud- insider trading- just so many things that can be done
in a 24-hour time span that can literally wreak someone's life.
Now it would make sense that during the purge business owners would pay to have extra security
guard their business during these 24 hours- however this would obviously come at an extremely
high cost- so this huge chunk of money could really weigh heavily on their business finances-
it would even highly affect their profitability for that quarter.
It would cause a significant instability in the economy for sure.
And there you guys have it that’s our list of what if the purge was real in America for
