I would say that once the purge ends you cannot be legally married to multiple people. Meanwhile if you murder someone they’re just dead. If you kidnap someone you’d have to let them go when it ends.
Stealing is an interesting gray area. Is possessing a stolen object the crime, or is the stealing the crime? Or possibly both? If possessing a stolen object is illegal then you’d have to return them when it ends.
What if you shot someone during the purge, but they did not actually die until the next day.
I’m thinking this whole “no laws” concept would actually need hundreds of thousands of laws. Courts would be tied up for years after each purge just trying to answer the legal questions regarding having no law.
Let’s cover polygamy and tax fraud. If you marry multiple people during the purge … does that mean the marriages are all legal?
If you claim a $1,000,000 tax refund and mail it while the purge is going … is that legal?
Most people would have way more on their mind than just murder.

I think of it more as the law looking away from any incidents on the day, and ignoring any lasting consequences after. Makes it neater.
Skyrim would have me believe that possession of a stolen item is also a crime.
It’s not “stolen” because stealing is a crime but you took it on
free balloonPurge Day. It’s just something you have now.deleted by creator
Just like that, you have moved any books written about the Purge from fiction to non-fiction.

the purge: April 15th
(for thise that are not american, this is when we have to file our taxes.)
(also, americans have to file their taxes manually… nothing is automated)
Yep, and in the US, if you miss something on your taxes the government/IRS will delay the taxes and actually redo them and send you the new amount.
