Torture is unconstitutional and illegal to boot, which is all that needs to be said. You Freepers who approve of it disgrace yourselves as Americans.

[Jack Barbara]

During the Waco seige, what psych techniques did the FBI use against the Davidians? Were those techniques illegal?

[LibWhacker]

Pollyanna kumbaya traitors disgrace themselves as Americans. That's the ONLY disgrace I see in evidence around here.

Do you care anything for American lives, hmmm?

In times of war, many constitutional protections can be suspended, and rightfully so.

"Torture is unconstitutional and illegal to boot..."

Don't torture the ones who are U.S. citizens and have Constitional rights and legal protections. Do whatever it takes to the rest who are not covered by our Constitution and laws to get the information. This is war.

We need NOT to become our enemy.

---hmm, "emergency decrees", "long war, may take forever", "we may have to give up some rights for the greater good" , "more security", and now "torture".

sounding sorta familiar already, been expecting it for several years now. Oh ya, 'standing shoulder to shoulder" with china, and now 'working with the russians more closely". Uh huh, yep.

good luck to all..

Our Constitution is just that...OURS....Written to protect AMERICAN CITIZENS from OUR tyrannical government, it's not meant to protect illegal invaders looking to destroy us as a whole anymore than it would protect foreign military invasion forces looking to conquer us.

I'm sure Bin Laden and the Taliban appreciate your support and are lookng forward to your next visit.

[Outrance]

Illegal?, Immoral? You obviously haven't been to my dentist. Lighten up, people are just venting, thats not to say these b@st@rds don't deserve the worst we could dream up. Back to reality :I think there are Psy-Ops that are more effective than physical harm. Imagine the possibilities!

[Mr. K]

I agree... While most of us here are probably just 'venting' I doubt many would actually want the laws of our country changed to allow 'torture'. We are more civilized than that. I do NOT think truth serum is torture.

I mean really people- can you imagine the civil service job posting for this?
