It's the new scifi-horror movie The purge's plot: what if crime was legal for one day a year?
Of course this is just the fantastic idea from which the movie starts with a story about scary events, badly music and a stunning vibe that'll freak out youngsters (and horror movies lovers) all over the world.
I won't go to watch it because I don't like movie where I get off with screams and frightful scenes. I'm not thrilled to be scared so it won't have my money, but the basic idea is outstanding.
So, I can't let go this chance to talk about it. What if crime was legal, even though only for one day?
Let's start from the biggest point: human beings can't be prisoned into a cage. As other animals: try to close a dog in a cage and see what it'll do when you'll freed it. Probabily it will attack you.
It's because of the living beings' energy. Every life thing in the world is made by a lot of cells and blood and other stuff that allow the life.
Every cell is connected to others with synapsis and these are decided by the Mind and are regulated by organs and hormones. If we could see inside a body (every one) we'd see a chaotic organization as well as a big office in rush hours where many people run every where like crazy arrows. The whole movement is made by the life energy (the one every religions try to explain with their own Godnesses). This energy can be sometimes high (when we're excited, emotionally or physically, or angry) and sometimes low (when we meditate, sleep, loaf, relax...), and in any case it must be released otherwise this can be dangerous for our body.
It's the basic idea of Psychosomatic theories: this energy must flow out, if it remains inside it starts to attack inner organs. For psychosomatic scientists and psychologists a lot of illness are caused by this energy leashed. From little hysteric illness (i.e. a passenger blindness or mygraine or psoryasis) to big problems as cancer.
Do you know when you're so much angry you'd want to harm something but you don't do anything and, literally, you eat your problems and your anger? Ok, this is not good because that anger is a bad energy that must attack something like a starving shark or a virus: isn't the wall in front of you? Isn't a boxer ball or something else? It doesn't matter, it will attack your organs.
This explains why animals can't stay in a cage: they don't know how to eat the anger to control themselves and so when you freed them they will attack you: they're so overwhelmed they can't control it.
It's not different what happens to every free person in the world every day (I mean 'people not jailed'). They have a bad boss and they'd like to say something against him, but they can't, they control their angry against him and maybe after they'll yell their wife or politicians or someone else.
Do you know those cases when a man kills his own family and his neighbours say he was normal, peaceful and anybody could think of the carnage?
We must face up to our angry and we don't have to say we don't have it or we know how to handle it because it's very difficult to manage it and it's not so simple to learn how.
Yes, the energy has also a good face (love), but try to put an angry person in front of a lover one and let them to fight... Angry energy controls our strenght, our arms, our legs, the love energy controls sexual parts (this is why religions have always had rules against sex) and our heart, our smile.
A happy man, a lover one lives better (not forever because even the happier man in the world must struggle anger) but an angry one lives longer, especially after a fight.
Whatever, come back to the topic.
What if crime was legal?
After what I've said about living beings it's simple to imagine what could happen.
Imagine if you could go to a store and steal whatever you want without anybody could say you something. Imagine if you could breach the Bank's door and getting all money you can get. No Police, no Laws, no rules, no arrest, no Trial, no prison.
Cool? It'd be anarchy: just one day could destroy the whole world as we know. We should spend the year after trying to fix up all damages.
But would it be this way for real?
I'm not so sure thanks to what I wrote some lines before: the anger control.
I wrote that human beings should live freely and that we should unleash our energy. Yes we should, but there's a reason why we don't do: balance.
Controlling the angry we don't see people who yell against their partners, bosses or others. Actually we see a world where people try to do their best to have a control of themselves, where they try to live quietly, facing bears everyday, figuring out solutions 24h a day.
We like peace, we like living with no screams around us and the religion's education (that controls the world) has gelled our minds on a no-war way.
Sincerely, if you could rape a girl or kill your boss with no consequences, would you do it? I don't think so.
We refuse rapes, burgles, snatches, wars, murders, pedophilia (perfect example how religion's education has changed our mind: something more than 2 thousands years ago there was no pedophilia because having sex with children was normal).
Maybe someone would do it but most of people would be close in their houses ready to face eventually burglars. For 24 hours.
Anger controls our minds if we don't allow it to flow out, but we have an education, ideas that have changed our behaviours. We're not prehistorical men any more, we're not as other animals.
And if crime was legal for one day we won't see a war, I guess.
