Lynching
I don't know if everyone has heard, but the FBI is investigating a possible lynching in Mississippi. The police found a black man that had been missing for a week in the woods hanging from a tree. I just think how coincidental this is since we were just talking about how horrible it must be to see family members hung during times of slavery. It just baffles me sometimes that people like this are still around.

Given that we haven't taught ethics to people for a generation, and that there are people pooh-poohing the very idea of right living, I'm not at all surprised we're seeing people acting like their personal opinion can be elevated to the status of justice. I've met people online who think lynching is somehow not murder, so I'm sadly not surprised at all.
