if civil causes of actions are still live during The Purge, doesn’t make any sense. Then I can bring wrongful death suits for Purge murders

Is only US law suspended? Then presumably other jurisdictions may still prosecute crimes committed under The Purge

Oh here’s a great thing to note if you’re looking to make money during The Purge: 18 USC 2320 is suspended during The Purge

so is the Bank Secrecy Act and other money laundering related statutes, so get on that

I just feel like The Purge is just not that big of a deal if it’s not also a temporary suspension of civil liability

also, just conceptually speaking, I think it would make a lot more sense if The Purge also temporarily suspended constitutional rights

because then the government isn't liable for allowing The Purge to begin with

because they’re under Purge safe harbor for the extremely dubious act of declaring The Purge to begin with

yeah the Constitution definitely has to be suspended, or else there is a separate amendment just to allow The Purge

How can the federal government suspend the whole of state criminal law, come on

*adds 10th Amendment to list of constitutional problems with The Purge*

You’d have to get all fifty states to cooperate with the federal government in Purge-ing. Ha! Good luck with that.

Imagine any president trying to convince governors to sign on to The Purge.

Obama trying to talk red states into cooperating with The Purge. Nothing but accusations that it’s a ploy to take their guns away

though, like I said, if the Purge temporarily suspends constitutional rights as well...

you heard it here first. The Purge was really just a plot to secure gun control
