That is a clip from The first purge trailer which comes out tonight.
Yeah it comes out on the 4th of July that’s… fitting.
Are you guys going to watch it let me know below.
By the way happy 4th of July to all of our American viewers.
Hey guys im Court McGinley and welcome back to the most amazing top 5.
Lets just right into our list on What if the Purge was real.
Alright first lets talk about--Fight or Flight- if the purge was real then you would need
to decide if you wanted to stay and either fight or lock yourself in your house- or decide
if wanted to leave the country.
I mean I for one would not want to stick around.
That sounds like the perfect time to take a nice little vacation if you ask me.
However the travel companies and hotels would just take advantage and bump up the cost of
tickets and rooms that weekend.
But I mean if that’s the price you have to pay to avoid mayhem id do it.
Would you stay for the purge?
Let me know below.
On to our next point--Finances- If your not planning to participate in this night then
its going to cost you a lot of money.
It would cost you thousands of dollars to securely lock up your home.
Wheather your leaving the country or not you would want to make sure your home is safe.
And apparently from what we saw in the movies even if you do lock up your home that’s
no guarantee so then you need to get a panic room as well.
Yeah the security companies are just racking in all the money.
But then when you think about it theres really no need for a security system for the other
364 days of the year- since apparently no one is breaking the law on any of those days.
So I would imagine the price would probably somewhat balance out.
Speaking of businesses you also have to consider that during this one night businesses such
as bars and clubs would have to close down.
So they’ve just lost a whole nights commission due to this night.
Which on the weekend – bars and clubs can bring in thousands of dollars.
So yeah if the purge was real some businesses would suffer and others would prosper.
Next up we have--Morals- Lets be honest with ourselves for a second.
If the purge was real most people would not go after one another.
I just don’t think it would happen.
Yes there are idiots in the world who love chaos and violence but theres also a lot of
good people in this world.
And a lot of people tend to talk the talk but when it comes down to it they arnt going
to walk the walk.
I mean think about it.
If you go out on purge night theres a good like 90 percent change your going to die.
People that are out there killing are just in a fit of rage and don’t care who you
are- if your in their way or in the cross fire your going to end up dead.
And then you have the poor people and the homeless who would be exposed to all of this
against their will.
They have no where to go.
But like I said yeah theres a lot of idiots out there but I think for the most part people
would just lock themselves in somewhere safe and mind their business.
Next up we have the --Morning after- The morning after the purge would be a nightmare.
This is something the movies tend to leave out.
They mention how this night makes the economy better and that it decreases the unemployment
and crime rate- which is of course a great thing- but at what cost?
Having hundreds of people murdered- buildings being destroyed and having people scared for
life.
When it comes to the after math of this night on the minor end there is so much property
damage that takes place.
It would take weeks maybe even months to rebuild and get buildings back to normal.
Then you have the emotional toll that this night takes on people- and the physical injuries
it leaves them with.
I don’t know how the government acts like after this night people can just somehow go
back to their normal lives.
Especially after having to witness the worst part of the aftermath from this night- the
cleaning up of the dead bodies.
People are killed in their homes and in buildings.. but the majority of people are killed on the
streets.
And come morning their dead bodies are still out there.
So even if you decide not to take part in the purge and you make it through the night
you still need to see the result of it all the next day.
That must be traumatizing.
Also the fear of not knowing if all of your loved ones are still alive.
I know I would be calling up everyone I knew the next day to make sure they survived the
night.
And for the last point and maybe the scariest—it being Legal- Yeah legalizing crime for 12
hours like that’s ever going to happen..
well I mean I hope it doesn’t anyway.
In the past year or so a lot of things have happened that we never though would so I mean
we cant completely rule it out.
But allowing any and all crime including murder to be legal for 12 straight hours..
yeah im not going to lie to you that would be terrifying.
And also on the legal side you have to think- theres basically only 2 rules you have to
follow- number 1- Government officials ranking 10 or higher are granted immunity from the
purge and cant be harmed.
And rule 2- weapons of class 4 and higher are restricted.
But during the purge arnt all police services unavailable until 7am the next morning?
So if someone wants to break one or both of these rules whos stopping them?
You may say oh well as soon as 7 am hits the next day and the purge is over those people
would be caught and prosecuted.
Well what if they are never caught?
You know there are people in history who have gone anonymous and have never been found after
murdering people- The Zodiac killer- Jack the ripper- the babysitter.
The list goes on an on…no reason one more couldn’t be added to it.
And you know how people love breaking the rules- this would probably just tempt some
people to actually see if they could do it.
Then theres the debate what if you kill someone at 7:01.
You could’ve stabbed them at 6:59 but hey some people can hang on.
So say they don’t die till 7:01 then what?
Technically the purge is over right?
Yeah the whole legality of the purge just would not work.
And then there are the legal issues that don’t involve killing such as threats.
So say someone comes up to you puts a gun to your head and says sign over the deeds
to your house and your car to me.
I mean most likely your going to comply.
And then what once the purge is over is that document legally binding?
It doesn’t seem right if it is.
Basically if the purge was real it would require a whole new branch of law- just a bunch of
new rules.
And there you guys have it that’s our list of What if the Purge was real?
