No, people PRETEND to be appalled. But you have 50% that say "probably deserved it, they got what they had coming to them." And maybe 45% that say "better he then me".

The remaining 5% have blinders on. The vast majority of people don't give two farts. In a hurricane, it doesn't affect them on a personal level.

One thing I learned by living with a compulsive liar for 25 years is that liars think everyone is a liar.

You DO realize that "murder" is a legal term don't you? When killing is legal, it's not murder. People have a problem with murder, not killing. Hell, some people even have a problem with "killing", even when it's legal. Look at the pro-fetus crowd. I've killed (under orders), when he enacts the purge, I could kill again and sleep like a baby. Although, I must admit, that for the people I have in mind, my "purge", would be more akin to Hostel did what you see in The Purge.

So, basically you are a sadistic killer by nature.
Somehow, I can believe that.

Sure, I'll get the list together for you..

When you have it compiled (with phone numbers, please)
Contact me via M2 message and I'll give you my email so you can email me the list.
Or don't, I don't care.
(Whats that hissing sound? Oh, its the air escaping from your leaking balloon ego)

all poor are not equal

All PEOPLE are not equal. Never were, are not now, nor ever will be.

In a Purge scenario, its the people with families and friends that would be most vulnerable. I've seen enough spy movies to understand that torture is most effective when one must watch people they care about get killed in front of them. They will divulge secrets, do things they would normally not do, just to protect those they love. The lone individual would be the safest. Plus, in the Purge movies, title and entitlement has no significance over whether you are spared because nobody is exempt.


not really, one of the main benefactors of the Purge is a character DEVELOPING and with much to gain from a security system for homes. Security systems that cost money, systems that would be mostly affordable to a certain 'class' of individual.

Becuase it is the one day, strangers have no knowledge of what family or people a victim might have or care about, they just have a bloodlust. and those who can afford the security for that one day to stay away from it or keep their loved ones away from it ... are safe.

If that's what you think of the US Marine Corps, that's your issue, not mine.

You want the contact info for the estates of the dead people too?

Maybe the grand sons/daughters might have a little of the compassion you're looking for.

Perhaps our differences on the movie stemms from the fact that I have seen the other movies in the series and perhaps you have not?
The newest one, released this year (July 4th), is supposed to be the first purge which happened on an island as an experiment.

In order by release date:
The Purge (2013)
The Purge: Anarchy (2014)
The Purge: Election Year (2016)
The First Purge (2018)
You can find the first 3 films to stream free at
http://ololo.to/s/the+first+purge+2018
I don't think there is a stream of the most recent online yet - its still in theaters.

In 2014, the New Founding Fathers of America, a totalitarian ultraconservative political party, are voted into office following an economic collapse. They pass a law that sanctions an annual national civic tradition called "The Purge." For 12 hours each year all crime is legal, except the murder of politicians, and all emergency services (law enforcement and medical) are unavailable. Any citizen who knowingly breaks the rules of the Purge faces a summary execution by hanging.
~ wiki
The first film focuses on one family during the purge.

On March 21, 2023, the media credits the annual Purge, a 12-hour period wherein all crimes are legal without authorities intervening, as an economic success. Everywhere, people prepare to either barricade themselves indoors or commit acts of violence. The nation's impoverished population is no longer seen as people, but as living garbage, whom the wealthy denounce as only living to serve their needs. However, before the sixth annual purge begins, a successful anti-purge resistance group led by Carmelo Johns and his partner, the Stranger from the first film – revealed as "Dwayne" – hijack government feeds to denounce the New Founding Fathers and their actions.
~ wiki
The second film encompasses a city focused on select groups of people during the purge.

A young Charlie Roan and her family are tied up by a masked purger. He taunts them with his "purge playlist", and then tells them they will play a final purge game called "Mommy's Choice." He then proceeds to kill the rest of Charlie's family and leaves her as the only survivor. Eighteen years later, Roan is a U.S. Senator campaigning for the U.S. Presidency, promising to end the annual purge nights. Former police sergeant Leo Barnes is now head of security for Roan. The New Founding Fathers of America's (NFFA) leader, Caleb Warrens and their candidate, Minister Edwidge Owens, view Roan as a threat; in the guise of regaining the public's trust, they revoke immunity for government officials to kill her on Purge night.
~ wiki
Still focused on individuals bu the rules have changed.

To push the crime rate below 1% for the rest of the year and restore the economy, the New Founding Fathers of America (NFFA) tests a sociological theory that vents aggression for one night in one isolated community. But when the violence of the oppressors meets the rage of the marginalized, the contagion explodes from Staten Island, the trial-area, and spreads across the nation. Because there are more parties being thrown than people being killed, the NFFA takes matters into its own hands.

I don't think of you as a representative of the United States Marine Corps.
They probably don't either. (Thank YOU for your service to our country)
Plus, I have family that were active duty marines and they value life.
Then one needs to understand that when someone kills anyone by choice it is murder, sanctioned or not. Nobody accidentally kills the enemy or the target.

You want the contact info for the estates of the dead people too?

I could provide you with a rather long list of people that have been beaten, shot, stabbed, drug behind cars, and set on fire, that you would have a difficult time selling that to. - Your Words
Since I can't 'sell' anything to someone that is dead, why would I want that specific information? Are you serious? Nobody is that dense.

My DD-214 says different.

The only thing I take comfort in, is that, as an Aviator, I never had to see the faces..

So you are trying to convince me and anyone else reading your comments that you represent the United States Marine Corps by your sentiments?
C'mon man, I grew up on a farm, I waded in what you're shoveling.

In real life the purge would be too destructive to property. Trump will probably put some type of cancer causing chemical in those bags of rice he is going to give the poor. Kind of like mouse poison.

If you saw Purge: Election Year, you know that business owners and property owners were able to buy "Purge Insurance" that paid for all their property. Poisoning the people, would put Donny right up there with Saddam Hussein, who used nerve gas on his own people... Oh wait, we're talking about Trump.

Never mind.

In real life you can't collect ins money if you are dead lol. That type of ins would probably be unaffordable. I guess Trump could feed the poor some contaminated vegetables picked by those terrorist illegals.

"Terrorist illegals."

Exactly when was the last time you bought an exploding tomato?

But thanks for proving my point. As I said in an earlier post, these days it's cool beans to hate Blacks, Mexicans and Muslims.

..The chem trails were started before Trump..agent orange before Trump ..the Gulf war syndrome before Trump the sailors who are suffering from radiation poisoning from Fukushima was before Trump..so if we're going to talk about poisoning pick one..

They believe the Gulf war syndrome was from the vaccinations we gave the military and that it affected not only them but their DNA which means that it would effect their descendants for generations to come., the govt. didn't want to afford that cost so ....guess what happen to all those military records ..well they were taken to the Alfred P Murrah building before it was blown up..odd how that be eh..

Those of us with fathers who went to Nam know about the agent orange that our government denied for years..and Now all this chem spray they say doesn't exist or is for geoengineering and the there's HAARP or all the garbage in our food including senomyx altho not poison but how about aborted fetal cells and then there's the nano tech that's in our food or the GMOs

SO yea we can talk about poisons..pick one..and it all started before Trump..pick a president and pick a poison ..it's what's for dinner or lunch or what we breathe..but hey none of that has happened just ask all those past presidents and they'll tell you... spock

As nefarious deeds we're blind to and the lies from our govt. we have believed for years I wouldn't believe anything the government says..don't believe..do the research ..the truth is out there..And the PURGE well it's coming and it doesn't discriminate...

Aids doesn't discriminate but certain lifestyle choices increase risk of getting it. A lot of those lifestyle choices you see happening in the ghetto.

It isn't. It is a imaginary fantasy. Fiction, plain and simple.
The 'animal' side of human beings is sociability.
We are a social species, just like chimpanzees and other primates.
Plus one must realize that humans "are" animals.
We are just 'civilized' animals.
There is no 'animal side' because all sides are animal.
To think that humans are NOT animals is delusional.

We don't need anyone to poison anything be it Trump or anyone else Fukushima is doing a good enough job all by itself..The radiation is all over the place and has been going steady for the past seven years..it's just a matter of time.. And as we consume the radiation it will build up in our bodies until it doesn't matter what we eat we will starve to death because our bodies will no longer be able to process the nutrients we need to live due to the radiation build up in our bodies..and the radiation in our bodies doesn't dissipate it just continues to build up as we reach that point..and die...spock
