The question is moot because you don't KNOW the person KNOWS; that's why you're torturing them. But let's see if we can find a nexus of agreement, so how about this? We would agree that, say, soldiers and police and Secret Service are volunteers. And we would agree that they volunteered to put their life on the line in defense of citizens (or the President). So how about this? Just as a Secret Service person will take a bullet to save the President, let's have the torturer make the same call: if he truly believes that the information he'll get will save lives, then he'll be executed for violation of law. In other words, the American must be so morally certain of his actions that he's willing to die. That way we don't violate our ethics and principles and the great information you claim torture will provide will be made available. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:296018 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
