Lynching just implies mob violence and a spectacle, the most famous ones happen to be hangings

It was often Frontier Justice - where there was no Police or Sheriff - and had nothing to do with race.

And a lot of people were murdered before their bodies were hung up. Because they wanted all to see. A lot d abolitionists were also lynched as well . Just shows even more how the left is revising history.

Wasn't even always a murder, public flogging and tarring-and-feathering were considered lynchings. Lynching is supposedly "named after William Lynch (1742-1820) of Pittsylvania, Virginia, who c. 1780 led a vigilance committee to keep order there during the Revolution."

"At first the act was associated with frontier regions, though from c. 1835 to the U.S. Civil War it also often was directed against abolitionists. The narrowing of the meaning to "extra-legal execution by hanging" is evident by the 1880s"

My wife just finished some research on lynching. In the early days, they often burned people.
