Default Re: Torture vs. Interrogation

You never use those methods. Period. We, as Americans, should not use those methods. They are torture - it's actually NOT a complex question.

First of all, the methods don't work. Second of all, you have NO IDEA if the what the person said is true, or they just said it to make you stop.

For me this doesn't even need observing, analyzing, or thinking about - the answer is pretty clear cut: the greatest country in the world (no offense to Canadians) doesn't torture people.

The whole thing reeks of past scenarios like the spanish inquisition. They thought what they were doing was 'getting the answers they absolutely needed' too.

And people who pose the question, "What if you HAD to do it to save lives" are trying to trick the person into trying to answer an impossible question.
