Donald Trump on Sunday proposed a new policy that many critics said is equivalent to legalizing “The Purge.”
Trump spoke at a rally in Pennsylvania, where he admitted that his attendees were “falling asleep” at one of his earlier rallies. Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign noted that, as Trump was still speaking at the swing-state event over the weekend, rallygoers placed directly behind the former president started to funnel out of the building.
One comment Trump made drew condemnation on social media, as well as numerous comparisons to The Purge, a film series based on a dystopian world in which the government makes all crimes legal for a 12-hour period.
As reported by Sebastian Smith, AFP Washington desk chief, “Trump in Erie, PA, says in US ‘the police aren’t allowed to do their job.’ To stop crime, you need ‘one really violent day.’ He says: ‘One rough hour and I mean real rough, the word would get out and it would end immediately.’”

They fully expect to roll into a city in a fleet of lifted F250’s and drive a herd of fleeing vegans before them without having to lift a finger. The fact that liberals can and will defend their homes isn’t an idea that’s crossed their mind. The things that “country folks” believe about “city folks” would boggle the mind.
To defend a place, an invisible high power UV-Laser does more damage to a crowd than a M16 if you know what I mean… city folk are creative. You don’t have to worry about getting shot when the opposing force is practically blinded for life.
If this conflict happens, it will shape the life’s of many in ways they can’t imagine. Like really REALLY bad maming of thousands.
Years ago, I read the book Empire because I had been a fan of OSC and didn’t know yet what a dickhead he was. The book describes more or less exactly what you said, it was comical, but also kind of sad.
