As the saying goes "those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it"...or something like that. Nobody quite knows the date all we know is that its been a long time since the nuclear apocalypse leading to basically a reset of all technology. From cars to walks, from guns to stones, and from skyscrapers to lean-tos. Basically all history is recorded via spoken tradition as i mentioned before virtually everything was lost after an overheat in a nuclear plant resulted in extreme panic in Japan leading to an accidental nuclear launch which was taken as an offensive attempt on the designated target (nobody knows who that actually was) they launched their nukes which led to most every country launching nukes, and basically the end of the world. Essentially since the repeated blasts the old fear of y2k was finally realized as all computers failed (reasons unknown), and all civilization tore itself apart. Each country blaming the other until finally everyone developed the isolationist political policy, and that was all between 2011, and 2015.

Its been about 5 years since the world ended now, and with no formal government the entire world has fallen into anarchy where street justice is administered constantly against: criminals, homosexuals, occasionally blacks, and Mexicans as well. This is the story of one "street police force" that grew rampant in the lower reaches of what used to be Los Angeles.

"Get him!" Chet hollers pointing at a closet homosexual.

"Jorge! Chase him down!" Tex hollers sending his comrade after this "suspect".

"Si, Senor" Jorge replies already taking off after the skinny, pale man now running for his life.

After a short while Jorge dives onto his target forcing his face into the black dirt, and ash mixture. "Adios, amigo" he whispers into his victims ear while awaiting the rest of the force. As Tex, Chet, and Sam approach all that's recognizable on the man to mark him as a homosexual is the small tattoo on his left wrist of a lion's cub given to all homosexuals before the blast for identification. Now Tex takes his opportunity to grab the nearest stone, and smash the man's kneecaps to prevent an escape attempt. Chet delivers a powerful kick into the man's ribs effectively draining him of breath. Sam takes her turn at the man by punching him in the throat then the crotch to render him entirely immobile. Now that he has no way to run the time has come to give him his fair trial. As usual Chet takes the job of judge, Tex of bailiff, Sam of prosecutor, and Jorge of jury.

"Now sir you are accused of homosexuality and inability to voluntarily contribute to the growth of humanity. How do you plea?" Chet inquires knowingly.

"I'm innocent! Oh, god please believe me!" The man begs, his voice betraying him.

"In that case sir I'm sure you wouldn't mind explaining your tattoo on your wrist?" Sam questions accusingly.

"I got it by choice I'm a big fan of lions I love everything about them." The man begins to sob uncontrollably.

"With no further evidence, and no arguments from either side I'll leave the jury to their decision." Chet glances at Jorge.

"Culpable, Gringo" Jorge replies without hesitation.

"In case your wondering that means 'guilty' in Spanish" Chet smirks "I sentence you to immediate execution by stoning"

At his command the stranger is laid down flat on his back surrounded by the police force all armed with stones off all sizes. As Tex casts the first stone of this execution the victim reels with pain as the rock collides with his left eye socket causing blood to drip onto his shirt. Next up is Chet who decides to aim for blood, and launches his first shot at the soon-to-be cadaver's nose. Jorge hits him in his smashed knees causing the man to scream in agony making the four attackers smile wide. Sam being always the kindest one of the squad strikes him in the throat with her stone crushing his trachea, and seeing that he's mortally wounded and essentially dead Tex, Chet, Jorge, and Sam walk away leaving him to suffer and die alone.
