24 is fiction beck. Its make believe, torture does not fucking work.
And contra to back it up !? Seriously ?

^Torture DOES work. I don't believe in torture but I don't pretend that it doesn't work. Don't take my word for it, though. Just ask Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.

It's okay to be against torture because it's wrong. It's not okay to argue against something by using lies and half truths. Don't be afraid to stand up for something because of beliefs, values, and morals.

America is better than that ...and that's all there is to it.

Torture doesn't work.

It just makes the cons feel tough.

They'd torture Jesus, too, if he were alive today, just like the Romans did.

So, you're saying that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed gave us more intelligence under "advanced interogation" than every intelligence agency combined simply because he felt guilty, not because we tortured it out of him. Is that right?

I could cite examples of torture working so don't tell me that it doesn't.



"Does torture work?" is the wrong question to ask!

Regardless, YOU'RE MISSING THE POINT!!!

We don't argue that people shouldn't kill because it costs money to investigate murders. That's not the point. Murder is morally wrong and so is torture. That's why we shouldn't do it. We shouldn't get lost in arguing about whether or not torture works. If we do that, we'll get stuck going in circles.

That being said, I'll ask the question one more time so that we can get past it: Does torture work? Of course it does. Otherwise, we wouldn't be having this debate. Is it always an effective method for extracting 100% accurate information? Nobody has argued that it is.

The Bush White House said that "enhanced interrogation" played a critical role in gaining the intelligence needed to stop "many plots".

I say, "So what?" Torture is wrong.
