Sorry you are unable to simply credit the words “right “ and “wrong “ without somehow wanting to obscure the difference. I think Cruz gave the right answer. Not because I don’t care about my loved ones or wouldn’t take extreme measures to protect them or any of the other outlandish fictions that have been created here, but because torturing another human being is wrong. It might be justified but it’s still wrong.
btw: in light of this thread, your tagline seems especially silly.
