'''Basic Trope''': An angry mob taking matters into their own hands.
* '''Straight''': After famed businessman and inventor Tommy Sharpe of Sharpe Industries had been outed as a [[PaedoHunt pedophile]], particularly after [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil sexual assault]] allegations from the victim, [[SpiderManSendUp Peter]] [[LovableNerd Perkins]], New York City goes all out with {{Molotov Cocktail}}s and [[ImprovisedWeapon basic equipment turned deadly weapons]], being spearheaded by the local BoisterousBruiser [[BrooklynRage Flash Young]] (One of Pete's best friends). DaEditor John Joshua Johnson, a typically gruff and cynical man, is in full support of Flash's crusade against Sharpe, even appearing at some marches and interviewing Flash himself.
* '''Exaggerated''': The ''entire state of New York and even some neighboring states'' support Flash in his crusade against Sharpe. ''[[HatedByAll That's]]'' how hated Sharpe is. All throughout the streets of Times Square, there's nothing but torches, {{molotov cocktail}}s, {{improvised weapon}}ry, and fury all around.
* '''Downplayed''': It only takes at most the whole school of Midtown High to crusade against Sharpe. Only a few carry some torches and pitchforks.
* '''Justified''': Tommy [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil straight up VIOLATED Pete behind closed doors]], and once all the horrific things came to light, absolutely ''nobody'' was happy with what they saw. As a result, they grabbed the nearest weapons, and came to arms.
* '''Inverted''': After the celebrations of Tommy Sharpe's charities being successful (this was before the allegations came to light), people turned [[SwordsToPlowshares their weapons into everyday equipment]].
* '''Subverted''': At first, it seems that the Angry Mob had calmed down...
* '''Double Subverted''': ...Before some jackass decides to light up the PowderKegCrowd again, be it a RabbleRouser nailing a [[AlwaysGetsHisMan very well known and well liked police officer in the head]], or a [[RabidCop glory seeking police officer]] shooting a pregnant woman dead.
* '''Parodied''': There are ''vendors'' for situations like this. [[WretchedHive And those situtations are plentiful]].
* '''Zig-Zagged''': Some people try a more peaceful approach, others a more violent, and overall it may result into a bit of a civil war.
* '''Averted''': There's no violent congregation.
* '''Enforced''': RuleOfCool, RuleOfDrama.
* '''Lampshaded''': Flash bellows, "GET YER DAMN TORCHES AN' PITCHFORKS, WE'RE LYNCHING TOMMY T'NIGHT!!"
* '''Invoked''': Flash plans out the march throughout Times Square in order to bring Tommy to justice.
* '''Exploited''': Throughout all the chaos, the less savory people trash stores and steal from them. Others may "accidentally" kill those who they don't like amidst the chaos.
* '''Defied''': Police is ''extra'' tight on the congregations. Everywhere Tommy goes, there's no less than 500 cops surrounding him.
* '''Discussed''': Flash discusses with his classmates on how to bring Tommy to justice, and they all agree on this trope.
* '''Conversed''': "Classic mob scene, torches and pitchforks and all that."
* '''Implied''': TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture (Or NextSundayAD), there's a chapter in some history book called "The Lynching", where it describes some nice, if not crass businessman, who has a UniversallyBelovedLeader kind of reputation, swiftly has said reputation come crashing down after being revealed to be a pedophile, and this also caused him to have an "Impromptu Execution" in the middle of Times Square. We do not get the full picture of what happened, though it can be inferred that it definitely did not involve only a few guys.
