Scout is so innocent that she doesn't recognize that the mob is dangerous and is there to hurt Atticus. She thinks that they are just visiting or hanging around so she starts chatting with Mr. Cunningham about how he is going through a tough time and how Atticus told her before that it would get better. This makes the mob feel more personal and feel ashamed of themselves and leave. A man by himself won't come up with such a bad idea but when in a group they become impersonal and do what they want to do but Scout makes them realize who they are and make them think about their families.
