How does being ex-military give you any idea of the effectiveness of torture? Were you a torturer?

To the topic, torture is illegal under US law, that is fact. It is against the law because most people would rather our country not engage in that activity. If you are in the minority of people who think it should be legal, your efforts at changing peoples minds would probably be better spent elsewhere. Here on Shopforum, most seem to be set in their opinion, and just as you are not going to change my mind, I am not going to change yours. So we agree to disagree. Fortunately for many, the non-torturing team has the ball right now, and I say let 'em run with it.
