ESL or the Old Testament?

Ok, we have been doing ESL in the villages for two weeks now and we had a baseball game with the kids on the last day on one of the schools. The village is called Seoci. Well, sometime after the baseball game some kids stole some candy and stuff out of our van. For those of you who don't know, the people of the villages belive that if they steal from us then it puts shame on them.
So, afterwards all the kids, about 40-50, ranging from like 3-8 grade, i think, ran out and caught one of the kids. On the hill next to the school i saw the crowd bringing him to us. Some of the older boys started to question him with my father. After a bit, some kids had found another of the theives and two kids were bringing him in an arm lock to us.
It was sad that they had stole from us, but i thought it was kinda cool that all these kids brought us the theives and all we did was sit on the stairs waiting.

It was kinda cool how they all did that.

Yeah that is pretty cool. It is sort of like the Old Testament (except that I think in the Old Testament they'd have a much more severe and permanent punishment). But nonetheless I hope you all are having or had some very prolific ESL classes.
