re: #703 reine.de.tout

I’m with you.
If someone was threatening an action that I knew would result in the death of my child, and I had access to a person who I could torture in order to get information to save her life, I would do it in a heartbeat.

In the case of the country - we are the children, the Gov’t is the “parent” responsible for our protection. If using waterboarding in a small number of cases will result in information that can be used to save the lives of our citizens, I have no problem with it’s use.
