In reply to: Drummond 's message, "Serious debate on torture" on 00:39:37 08/10/03 Sun

I get the strangest feeling that you don't take me seriously, Drummond. I don't know why...

But anyways, I'll summarize my debate as to not sound too preachy.

Well, just like any decent law, that is generally created to protect all people, should be remembered that it was designed to protect all people. Erasing these laws in order to punish (torture) a minority is totally insane. That would easily create open season on anyone who, let's say the Bush administration, doesn't happen to like. I don't know about anyone else, but I find that to be extremely horrifying. And the fact that it's even an option disgusts me.

That's it for now.
