Other than a lynch mob, I can't really think of any examples of mob rule democracy.

Lots of ways to accomplish mob rule. In this country we use the republican form to accomplish it.

The results are the same. The only way to have the desired result is to establish inviolable rights of the individual. The framers tried. The undoing started almost immediately.

That's where we are today, ochlocracy.
