[QUOTE="Ringo84, post: 52765394, member: 157762"] When I've discussed this issue here on CF, [B]everyone[/B] has used this argument. My question is: why do we assume that torture is the one and only way to either protect ourselves from terrorism or retrieve our children from kidnappers? [B]Everyone[/B] uses this argument also. I don't say that to discredit you but to simply point out that these arguments are not new. We should remember that real life doesn't work like the TV show '24'. No...I don't think my mind would be changed. If torture is wrong when it is done by terrorists, it's wrong when we do it - regardless of lives supposedly being saved or the reasons why we're using torture to achieve our goals. Ringo [/QUOTE]
