I'm going full autistic on those movies but from what little I could get of the 'lore' it's also completely implausible, any system like that would fall apart in five seconds because even if you had the military go full lockdown on the area given that there's nothing illegal about owning guns and stockpiling weapons generally bottling something like that up would be far more catastrophic to the wider area. Seemed like a very leftist worldview on the human condition really where they think humans will simply turn on each other without law and order.
It was also retarded that it assumed people would magically be law abiding citizens again the next day. Oh, my neighbor broke into my house and murdered by children, guess I have to wait until next year to get revenge.
Also never understood why, in the first one, that masked gang spent all night harassing ONE locked down house. Why not skip the hard target and go find something a bit easier?
If people get punished for nothing, they may as well commit crimes.
This was the point of the Purge movies, dumb as they were.
What wasted potential, those films.

Comment Approved: I don't think this is advocating that, but I understand how the wording makes it seem like that. "may as well" is throwing you off.
