This new generation, for example, is not content with preachings against that vile form of collective murder - lynch law-which has broken out in our midst anew. We know that it is murder, and a deliberate and definite disobedience of the Commandment, "Thou shalt not kill." We do not excuse those in high places or in low who condone lynch law. (Franklin D. Roosevelt)
