The Purge (AU)
Sep. 24th, 2016 12:02 amOne night every year, all crime is legal. It's late in the year, so let's say: 6PM to 6AM.
Why? Because humanity is inherently brutal, because a pressure valve minimizes crime for the other 364 days of the year.
Is that true? Does it matter?
Combine your canon with this idea, or take your character out and plop them into 2000s America, or maybe they're travelling and they land in a country where the Purge is legal.
Regardless of the circumstances . . . what will you do? Will it be a fight for survival? A chance to commit the crime you've dreamed of?
Let's see what your pressure valve is.
