How many cops does it take to throw a community lynching?
None.
The question that remains is: Why is the community having to resort to lynching?
Following the metaphor and using the US "Old West" as an example,
lynchings were largely due to one of the following:
* a lack of organized law enforcement
* a lack of effective law enforcement
The problem is that to fix either of those problems you'd have to wade
through a fever swamp of "facists online!" claims from all the
pseudo-anarchists who start twitching at the thought of any agency
imposing it's will on the internet.
