Ethnic Violence

Example of Ethnic Violence
An example of ethnic Violence is Lynching-an extra illegal form of capital punishment used against persons of different ethnic backgrounds-such as a suspect in a crime who is killed by a mob regardless of weather or not the suspect is actually guilty or not. For example: Because of the hysteria about "foreigners" and anti war activists there were at least three related lynchings:
 * Butte, Montana Lynching of Frank Little August 1,1917 {labor activist and anti war]
 * Collinsville, Illinois Lynching of Robert Prager April 5, 1918 [Socialist]
 * Duluth, Minnesota Lynching of Olli Kinkkonen September 18,1918 [Anti-war]
