LET'S ARGUE TORTURE

[Jimbone]

I consider waterboarding torture, yes. In my opinion, anything that is done where someone thinks they might die would be torture.

C'mere honey, let me strap you down & continuously poor water over your face/mouth/nose until you're gasping for air & don't expect me to stop simply because you can't breathe, 'K.

I'd be okay excluding water boarding... but the rest of what goes down ain't torture.

Other parts of the world really know how to torture people. We're rank amateurs at it.

So if someone kidnapped and knew where your kids were, would you torture them to find out? Because I think I would go Medieval to get answers.

Pfft. I'd torture someone if they took one of my critters. I still want to fuck up the bitch that hit one of my geese.

[Midwest Spy]

An interesting take.

Sounds like the good folks of the U.K. are tired of being in America's shadow.

Kiss my arse you smarmy prick.

I feel much too clean to be considered smarmy.

You don't give off that impression you greasy fuck.

I think if you agree with torture as a means of extracting information, you're basically saying to the savages "hey, go ahead and torture our troops caught in combat; we're going to torture yours".

I'd rather have a no torture policy and therefore be able to claim that those that do it are committing war crimes.

Ya' can't have it both ways.

I delineate between torture and enhanced interrogation...

Playing loud music, pounding on tables, or putting a hood on someone's head isn't torture.

Cutting off body parts, shooting a limb, or burning their skin with flame or chemicals is torture.

“Enhanced interrogation” is a buzzword created by septic tanks to once again justify their actions and innate hypocrisy.

Torture can by psychological and emotional as well as physical fuckwit but you already know this to be the case.

Also factor in that information gleaned through torture is about as useful as a chocolate teapot! Torture me enough and I will confess to being on the grassy knoll in Dallas in 1963 even though it was ten years before I was born.

Torture is reprehensible and fucking useless as well.

That's funny. I thought CN was posting for a minute.

In my opinion, anything that is done where someone thinks they might die would be torture.

That's why I refuse to go and reread the first two hundred pages of the Johnny and Lisa thread . . . translating Ohio tardism and layered quotes is torture.

That being said, I did watch Zero Dark Thirty, last night and am grateful . . . even if only as a literary license . . . that "torture" was used to extract information leading to the killing of UBL.

I volunteer to be a Dominatrix to humiliate some of the sumbitches in captivity.

They'd be begging for the dog collar every time I walked into the room!

[Maggot]

I would pull the hemorrhoid's out someone's ass with an industrial vacuum cleaner coated in ammonia if they fucked with any of my family members. Then push them into the ocean with their entrails longer than their legs as I laughed Ha-Ha but would never torture them.

[Cynical Ninja]

Torture is wrong.

End of story.

It's okay if you're willing to turn a blind eye when the enemy does it to our own.

Oh you sexy mutha. Rawr!

I was just looking at your hotness in a bikini the other day, I was thinking about bumping the bathing suit thread.
