Why, you don't think that torture is an ethical issue?<p style="font-size:1024px">HTML is disabled in signatures

Well of course it can serve as an ethics issue, but be sure you don't divert too much by going too far with the basic discussion of amorality and morality.Originally posted by loinburger

Yeah, exactly. We're a bunch of brutal mother-****ers. It's about time we stopped pretending and started advertising.Originally posted by chegitz guevara
Then be appalled. Torture was used in Haiti, in Kuwait, and definately in Vietnam. I wouldn't be surprised if it was used in Somolia and Kosovo as well.John Brown did nothing wrong.Comment

Wait just a minute. Time out, Felch.
We? You got a mouse in your pocket?
In Somalia and Vietnam, torture was most definitely practiced, on Americans.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Blame Sava for that one. He's the one who implied that it's possible to be moral and evil (or immoral and good).Originally posted by MrFun

I understand fully what you said.
In Somalia, gangs led by Warlords dismembered and dragged bodies of servicemen through the streets.
They also shielded themselves with innocent women and children, using (as I pointed out earlier) America's humanistic way of thinking to their advantage.
I won't even go into talking about Vietnam.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

This is another of those confusing issues for me.
I recognize and acknowledge that much of the world doesn't play the game like the U.S. plays.
Given that, it's extremely tempting to say, "Screw this. Reap what you've sowed. Back at ya".Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

But then how can you complain about things like the WTC attack, if nothing is off limits? It's the restraint that makes us western countries "better"."On this ship you'll refer to me as idiot, not you captain!"

That's right, Jaakko.
Just because it sucks, doesn't mean it can't suck more.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Vietnamese torture of Americans doesn't justify American torture of Vietnamese.Originally posted by SlowwHand

We know that Canuk's tortured some Somoli. I wouldn't doubt that Americans also did it, but without proof, I won't tsay that they actually did use torture.

That this has to be spelled out is in and of itself rather apalling.
