You guys will never catch me! And I will NEVER be subjected to tar and feathers!

What does "tar and feathers" mean? Is it an expression?

http://www.answers.com/topic/tarring-and-feathering
So how is it a punishment? How does the feather hurt the person?


I know it was practice in the wild west to put people to shame. Everyone could see that the tarred and feathered person did something wrong.

So I searched wikipedia and apparently it was hot tar


hot tar would be quite horrible 8O
