  • Imagine there was one day a year where all crime was legal. Well you don't have to imagine too hard because "The Purge" film series did it 4 times, and then a TV show, but would you believe "The Purge" is actually based on a real life holiday? Check out today's insane new video to see where and when all crime was actually legal for a day!

    A couple years ago in class we were doing this thing where we had to write our response to a question in our notebooks in the beginning of English class. Near the end of the year we got a chance to pick the question. One of the ones I picked was "what would you do if there was one day where you could do anything with no consequences" my friends were obsessed with the purge and so they loved that question. Someone said he would run the teacher over and the teacher said "not if I run you over first"

    so does it still count? or is it void since it is a rule when there are no rules?
    If it doesn't count, then it does still count because there are no rules, so the rule "there are no rules" is both valid and void at the same time.

    I remember my high school Latin teacher once told us Christmas was created because of Saturnalia. After Rome fell and when the church took over people still celebrated Saturnalia. The Christians didn't like that because, to them, it was a pagan holiday. The people told the church to pound sand. They weren't going to give up their holiday. So the Church said "Okay, but from now on it's 1 day instead of a week and your celebrating the birth of Jesus". Yet another example of "If you try to take someones freedom all at once they will resist. If you take it bit by bit, they tend to let it go"
