p.s. The first USA lynching was of a group of Italians in
New Orleans. No one talked about 'civil rights' in that
context, and yet they did die at the end of a rope.

crime that they were executed for?

That matters little, if at all. Those committing lynchings are still guilty of murder. Private citizens don't have legal authority to put someone to death. Doing so is murder.
