“Mob violence are people filled with blinding hate relieving themselves by the beating of others instead of facing the deep dark sickness in their own soul in making one bad decision after another.”

Psalms 11:5 Yahweh examines the righteous, but the wicked and him who loves violence his soul hates.

Psalms 72:14 He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence. Their blood will be precious in his sight.

Proverbs 3:31 Don't envy the man of violence. Choose none of his ways.

Acts 17:5 But the unpersuaded Jews took along{TR reads "And the Jews who were unpersuaded, becoming envious and taking along" instead of "But the unpersuaded Jews took along"} some wicked men from the marketplace, and gathering a crowd, set the city in an uproar. Assaulting the house of Jason, they sought to bring them out to the people.
Facts: Deindividuation obviously does not occur every time people get together in a group, and there are some group characteristics that increase the likelihood of violence, such as group size and physical anonymity. First, many people believe they cannot be held responsible for violent behavior when part of a mob because they perceive the violent action as the group’s (e.g., “everyone was doing it”) rather than their own behavior. When in a large group, people tend to experience a diffusion of responsibility. Typically, the bigger a mob, the more its members lose self-awareness and become willing to engage in dangerous behavior.  Second, physical anonymity also leads to a person experiencing fewer social inhibitions.  When people feel that their behavior cannot be traced back to them, they are more likely to break social norms and engage in violence.
