US policy on torture

What are we, Nazis? Stalinists? Reading this stuff makes me almost physically sick.

You should ask yourself:
What is torture?

Then get more information before you slam someone for their actions.

Hi Dave,
Well here are a few examples:

- putting dog leashes on prisoners
- stripping them naked and making them pose for sexual photos
- beatings
- applying chemicals to prisoners' eyes and skin
- forced stress positions that cause prisoners to pass out
- not allowing sufficient transparency of prison operations and treatment
- sodomy and rape
- near drowning and near asphyxiation

Those are just a few that come to mind.

Who's doing the "slamming"? I'm saying people are people, and not even terrorists, in my mind, deserve this. If you want to think they are less human than you are, well that is your mistake, but I can't support my country in this.
