Are those two really so different?


There isn't necessarily a lynching every time a king gets deposed, and there are certainly too many lynchings that have nothing to do with overthrowing a despot. But even so, when writing that sentence I get the feeling that the two activities I chose to name aren't always that different one from the other. Perhaps I should have added something along the lines of "and just about everything in between" as a way of showing that I was attempting, apparently not fully successfully, to show that crowds appear in a wide variety of circumstances.
