@Blackhawk342 Yes, there are murder laws

Who could have known

So wouldn't that cover lynching? lol

You don't need a law against immolation, because murder is already illegal.

EXACTLY

ITS SO STUPID

"Yeah but what about burning someone to death."
"--That's murder, m'boy."

It's like saying "let's make a law against stabbing people"

Like, come on

Nah nah nah.

Just do cool backflips.

And stick potatoes on their knives.

😎

But you know what was stupider

The context

Basically, a bunch of villagers found people giving away candy

And they spread rumours those guys were child molesters,

Oh christ.

So the villagers did the natural thing

That happened right?

I hate moral panic.

And killed them

They lynched some people from the police stations

I mean the people held in them

Yeah that too

It's so stupid man

I hate mainstream media

Oh. Yeah, that's bad.

So they're considering a lynching law I guess?

Yea, the supreme court recommended to the parliament to make anti lynching laws

Though they would be redundant

I can see the debate.

Probably because in murder, there is that one perpetuator

Ah so it would be like hate crime laws in the US

But in a lynching, theres a crowd

adding extra penalties to the crime comitted

at least thats what i assume it would be like

Which was kinda silly. A crime is a crime no matter the intent

Why does intent factor into the punishment?

Y'know what I think could solve the false rape claim problem?

@Blackhawk342 we have those too
