And when I cut your throat then that is no murder. It may even work, so - lean your head back!
i am not debating torture yes/no here. just wanting to say that administering simulated agony and provoking according physical reflexes and reactions by the body [violent, brutal, harsh, spasmic reactions, btw.) sure as hell is torture not different to beating, cutting limbs of and electroshocks. If you do not believe me, ask some friends to press your head under water until you almost fade out. You will be amazed what your body will give you in sensations and agony. If you are male, you might even get an erection. That'S why some people consider waterboarding to ba a gay practice.
Waterboarding just lacks the splatter fx, it just is a cup of water spilled in your face, isn't it, it even is not much water, and that's why simple minds consider it to be harmless and tame. If it would be tame, I wonder why there can be reports then claiming that it is "effective". Did the subject suddenly discover it's sense of humour and decided to cooperate before it laughs itself to death?
