'I said that although hanging Colby was almost certainly against the law, we had a perfect moral right to do so because he was our friend, belonged to us in various important senses, and he had after all gone too far.'  Today I'm reading one of my favorite short stories by Donald Barthelme: Some of Us Had Been Threatening Our Friend Colby.  A book of his short stories, with this one included, can be found on Amazon here: https://amzn.to/2G92Z4R
