One of two alleged robbers was brutally killed after an angry mob caught up with him shortly after he stabbed a taxi driver during a heist in Caloocan City on Saturday night.
The police said the man, who remains unidentified, suffered a fractured skull and a stab wound in the chest. Probers said the fatality was about 35 years old, fair skin complexion, medium build and five-feet, six inches tall.
It seems that mobs can dispense justice faster than the US Supreme Court, is this an acceptable form of behavior for a civilized society? Is it fair for a mob to decide who lives and dies?
I guess I brought this up because of the current “mob killings” in Iraq. If a society is to be civilized, then it cannot have mob rule. People are wrongly killed, but in this case I’d say they were right.
