    I haven’t seen the purge, but I know enough to know it’s not a good model for human behavior.

    Ask yourself, is the law the only thing stopping you from going on a murder-spree? Why would it be for anyone else.

      What are you talking about? We’ve seen petty theft become decriminalized in certain cities and theft has skyrocketed. Just because most people wouldn’t steal doesn’t mean no one does.

      You don’t know anything.

        You’re comparing petty theft to murder

        One of these crimes has a word in it that quite literally means insignificant in it, do you not see how they’re nowhere near comparable?
