It could much more accurately be stated that three stupid crackers thought they could reinstate 1870s street justice and lynching.

The modern legal system informed them of the error of those thoughts.

"Three people with the best of civic-minded intentions" do not charge around city streets standing in the back of a pickup screaming lethal threats while brandishing firearms.

They do not put themself in this position.
