Horseshit. Why do lawful men not take matters into their own hands? Kill them anyways. Its time to stop blindly following our dear leaders orders.
So you want to storm the prison, beat (or kill) the guards, and lynch the convict?
I don't think you would still be a "lawful" man if you did that.
Personally, I think you would be liable for premeditated murder and subject to capital punishment. That's only if you even survived you little keyboard fantasy.
