Lol 60%! You must not have much faith in humanity. I like to think a much smaller percentage of people would find enjoyment out of killing strangers. Now if they had a purge where we could kill these people harming children or doing horrific crimes then I could get in on it I think.

While 60% sounds insane, I don't think you even need to have that much faith in humanity. I myself have more faith in the human instinct for self-preservation. Who would be stupid enough to go outside on a night like that, let alone run around the city armed with nothing but a machete or an axe, or even a gun? Even if you're suicidal, that's no reason to risk letting yourself get tortured to death by the other sick and twisted people who are purging.
