Presumably there is a distinction between being "put to death" and 
furtively bumped off in a dark alley.

Fine: What black man was put to death without legal authority unjustly?

Name him.

Or, if you want to define every murder of a black man as lynching, let 
us start counting whites murdered by blacks as compared to blacks 
murdered by whites.

If you want to count every murder of a black as lynching, observe that 
there are approximately five hundred white people killed by blacks every 
year,

The number of black people killed by whites, counting whites as hispanic 
is roughly comparable, about two hundred per year, but there is a big 
difference, a huge difference, in the character of the killings:  Almost 
every black man killed by a white man was engaged in a felony at the 
time he was killed.  Only about one non felonious black is killed by a 
"white" man (actually hispanic) per year.
