Torture

Well I finally got a gmail account so next time (evil laugh) I will flood the internet as I did the classroom. Since I am still stuck in the protorture mode from the debate I will show case that side.

information-although torture does not guarentee correct information, it does give more then doing nothing. In addition the different lies that have been recieved can help show what is the answer they are trying to avoid. Watch Numbers if you don't believe it is possible.

it's unconstitutional- trust me on this one the constitution is like a treaty- it is obeyed until broken. The constitution has been broken and "interpreted" repeatedly and torture is technically forbidden in cruel and unusual punishments. However it has been used in the past until the constitution was applied to the states. This is using an authority to justify your position, but it doesn't work against people who have read the constitution and know history.

Drugs- how you guys consider addling someones brains with drugs not a form of torture is beyond me. I am pretty sure that if you said drugs only they would use them recklessesly because it gives you the option to manipulate other peoples mind. Not a power you would want to give anyone.

It is evil-The only real objection, all others are justification for it. And its true. My counter? So is killing innocent people, and unprovoked wars and stockpiling nukes and well you get the idea. We are quite literally running out of atrocities. We already torture people for the heck of it in Gitmo; the only difference is we are using a case where it will get results.
