This is how us AMERICA'S take care of business !!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍 TRUMP 2020 !!!!!!

So it is 'mob justice' if it happens in America, but 'mob lynching' if it happens in India. Wait, has 'Praise be Upon Lord' become a new murder cry?

Don't steal cars

Now, I guess, he’ll never have a chance to go live with Uncle Phil in Bel Air...

Did the mob force him to chant Jai Shri Ram ?

He tried to carjack so he’s not suspected, he actually attempted it. Let’s say it how it really is.

It's an occupational hazard. As long as the would be victims are unhurt is all that matters.

This was not a case of self defence. It seems to be revenge & mob justice. Those involved should be punished..

Good!

GOOD! Trying to steal a car with three kids inside

He slipped. Ppl were just trying to help him up. Next.

So if the police shot him dead it would be ok 🤔 but since it was civilians they should be held accountable?

With no megaphone or radio? This is brilliant! Imagine getting a knock at the door in a submarine! alright, now that's just badass.
