In olden times, tarring and feathering someone to look like a bird and running them out of town was the standard punishment for douchebaggery. Hilarity would ensue and justice would be served. Tar has a much lower boiling point than water, and only causes minor burns. The main thing with tarring and feathering was the humiliation of looking like a bird. I think this should be brought back and used on some of our corrupt politicians and corporate asshats. Who should we tar and feather first? Newt Gingrich? Anyone who voted for NDAA or who thought SOPA was a good idea? Maybe some Goldman Sachs executives?
I think a good start would be the jackasses that gave away roughly $8 trillion out of the Federal Reserve to bankers after they ran the economy into the ground with their Wall Street derivative casinos. Then we could move on the the NDAA architects. That should be followed up by the asshat sponsors of the Expatriation Act, Charles Dent (R-PA), Senator Joe Lieberman (D-CT) and Scott Brown (R-MA). However, Scott Brown, who both is one of the top recipients of Wall St. campaign donations and sponsors these batshit insane unconstitutional laws, won't be a Senator for much longer, as I think Elizabeth Warren is going to throw him out in the next election.
I didn't know that Joseph Smith (the douche who founded Mormonism) was tarred and feathered and run out of town at one point. I think our ancestors knew how to deal with douchebags and asshats much better than we do today.
