re: #48 Obdicut

That is one of my biggest problems with any use of torture by the US: You have to employ people who want to use torture and are ‘good’ at using torture.

I have no problem with people who want to fight our enemies and kill them. It’s a savage desire but it’s not irrational.

I am completely creeped out by anyone who wants to, who is capable of, torturing a helpless person.

Obdi - and I wonder how the act of engaging in applying torture to someone will change an otherwise good person. It has to have an effect. There’s no way that something like that will not have a negative effect on a person.
