Mobs

Now, That's Refreshing:

I sometimes wonder why this doesn't always happen:

About a dozen residents of a Dallas neighborhood beat a man after reports that he had been showing pornographic pictures to children on a playground, police said.

Actually, he was caught in the act.

When one of the mothers saw him and asked Burke what he was doing, he tried to run and the woman started screaming, said Elizabeth Williams, the mother of another child. According to a police report, Burke said about 15 men "jumped him and hit him repeatedly on the face with their fists."

Seems kind of natural to me. Of course, the police showed up eventually.

Burke was arrested on suspicion of harmful display to a minor.

One assumes he will also be civilly liable for any injury to local citizens, as he endangered their fists by showing porn to children in a civilized neighborhood.
