Well,
        Mr. Fowler, I am strongly opposed to rape. However, I would be
extremely critical of a crowd who, upon accusation of rape, a person
were drug from his home, his hands cut off and hung to death in public
without a trial - in fact, no opportunity to say anything at all -
especially if I had known the person for over 15 years and he had ALWAYS
behaved honorably. 
        Yes, I would object to the process. I would want a trial. I would
want the defendant to have representation.
        Perhaps you would perceive that as my being pro-rape? If anyone
protests a lynching, they must be advocating for the crime for which the
person is accused.....Interesting perspective.
        Sincerely, Michael
