  • @TylerHinds And people like is are why we are no longer a free nation. Haven't been for many decades...

  • @TylerHinds

    The government will always justify and pass the most unlawful acts of legislation like it did with the Patriot Act, all in the name of "keep us safe." When the government says it's going to protect you, look out because you are about to lose your freedoms.

    “They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security” -Benjamin Franklin

  • My opinion, you have to do what is necessary to protect the nation and isn't always pretty.

  • Ohhh, it ain´t torture ?

    Why don´t teachers use it on first graders if somebody wrote stuff like "Theedge is a moron" on the blackboard ?

    Maybe you could even use it on psychics to solve all unsolved murder cases....

    /sarcasm

  • Waterboarding - when sitting the terrorist down to tea and asking "pretty please with sugar on top" doesnt work!

  • keep the country safe from what? you retard. and waterboarding gives the person such a intense effect that the person will actually believe that they're dying or already dead. how is that not torture???????????!!!!!!!!!!!

  • You're a misinformed putz. I fear the fact that you're probably old enough to vote, as well as sit on a jury. God help us.

  • Our special forces (the best, brightest and most able folks that defend our nation-state) undergo water boarding. If its OK for us to do it to the very men and women that are protecting our country, then why can't we do it to our worst enemies?

  • That sounds great -- in theory. The Colonists did not have to face the threat of nuclear holocaust (or dirty bombs), like we do today. The world has changed and we have to respond to threats to not only our national security, but to life as we know it.

  • I'll be standing right beside you, if it ever came to such a case.
