Lynching redux

[Wilson Gray]

In an earlier thread, there was some question as to whether vigilantes
had to use hanging as the means of execution in order for said
execution to count as a lynching.

The NYT, in a recent article, referred to a vigilante killing as a
lynching, even though the four victims had been shot to death. IIRC,
the article described the occurrence as "the last mass lynching."
