Would you torture a terrorist to save 1,000 lives?

They were not thinking about their victim's rights when committing the crime, why should we cater to theirs during the punishment? The "slap on the wrist" mentality of many rights activists actually perpetuate similar crimes in the future. These people should be made an example of.

OBJECTION

some liberties are forfeited in the event of committing a murder (such as your freedom), but others are not and should not be. two wrongs don't make a right. of course, if the CIA or FBI were faced with this hypothetical situation i'm sure they wouldn't hesitate to go all khalid sheikh mohammed on a bitch.

this scenario is too complex for me to properly form a contention currently, as i am ridiculously tired, so i will not do so.

fucking love how boomhauer went all HOOAH MURICA PTSD shimmy schizo sociopath on this thread lol.
