Were the mobs that lynched Black Americans a few decades ago considered “flash mobs”? My father barely escaped a white mob that was lynching any Black person they saw. He escaped via a kindly white man who smuggled him out of town in the trunk of his car. Two wrongs do not make a right.

No, flash mobs are mobs are organized by social media or cell phones.

That is way foul. Glad your father was spared some rampant ignorant violence by a sane white person -- who, apparently, was in short supply that day!
