That one makes no sense.
Lynching someone is something done outside of the law, thus it's a crime.
Hanging a traitor happens after the person has been tried and convicted of treason.

“That one makes no sense.

It makes perfect sense. Think about what the people themselves will do when they find out about some of the horrific crimes that have been committed. These people won’t be safe walking the streets. This law would provide some federal protection. I got a shiny dime (I’m more generous that Bagster, lol) that says Trump won’t sign it if it makes it to him.

It’s a stupid bill. To hang someone, or kill them in any such ritualized way, is capital murder in the first degree! It doesn’t get any worse than that. It’s coals to Newcastle. It’s ice to the Eskimos. It’s grandstanding is what it is, really.
