There was an incident in South Korea some years ago where a greedy developer built an apartment building with substandard concrete; the building later collapsed and killed a few hundred people. The guy was tried and convicted and as he was being frog-marched to his sentencing hearing, friends and relatives of the victims were coming out of the crowd and beating him while his escorts just looked away.

It's really enjoyable to imagine that happening here in the US, but then it's enjoyable to imagine winning the lottery, too.

Vietnam would have had him executed by now

People like this would be shot. People would group together and hire gunmen to get rid of criminals in the old west.

Of course their security was just a few body guards and that's it. Nobody was living in high tech buildings separate from everyone else.

It's still punishable by death! Not legally, officially, but very much in reality!

Sounds like just anothwr day in the USA
