CW that, this isn't a shock board. 2) Disemboweling? I've never seen pictures or testimony of that, not that I have exhaustive knowledge. Technically, I think corpses were strung up but no one was lynched (i.e. summarily executed by hanging), it was all immolation and maybe gunfire via stolen weapons.
you can find pictures of disembowled and hung corpses if you want to look for them. not sure if the order of what happened matters all that much to the context of what was happening. also there were scores of people who were suddenly seen with english signs and supplies of gasoline who were the first to start committing beating and burning people to death, stealing weaponry and escalating the protests into violence.
I'm familiar with the hung and immolated corpses, my point was that hanging a corpse and lynching a living person are not the same thing and that I can't remember anything about disembowelment (and I've seen a handful of gory pictures of what was done to soldiers). I have looked, too.
Anyway, we're on the same side, and don't forget the fucking statue of liberty pastiche that got erected in the square for a time, or that random students probably wouldn't have access enough to petrol (a somewhat sparse commodity at the time) to use it as weaponry. Lots of very interesting interviews too, in the link I posted to the same comment you first responded to.
id need to take a look again ive seen a couple western sources report even disembowled soldiers but i fucking hate looking at this stuff :vivian-shrug:
protestor massacre is a generous way to frame what was ostensibly a uprising where rioters were lynching burning alive and disembowling soldiers.
