On 05-18-09, BOB ACKLEY said to TIM RICHARDSON: BA>I don't defend *any* of those "people", Richardson. Well you certainly don't seem to have any `ill' feelings toward them. BA>I simply refuse to BA>engage in or condone similar behavior just because they do it. I don't. I can still see in my minds eye the immages of those two jumbo jets swerving around and aiming into the World Trade Center twin towers. The images of firemen and cops dragging victims out of the still standing, burning structures, then plunging back into the inferno, many to never be seen again, is still vivid in my memory. If you think the way to deal with rabid animals is to try making friends with it, you're gonna need a lot of rabies shots. BA>Your heroes have literally beaten at least three people to death with your BA>'enhanced interrogation' techniques and left another one to freeze to BA>death while chained naked to the floor of an unheated cell overnight in BA>subfreezing weather. First of all, save the shock value bullshit for the kiddies. I don't know for a fact that any such things happened, and I doubt you do either. BA>Torture interrogation doesn't work, it gives answers but the answers BA>aren't necessarily true. Secondly, if anyone commits deliberate murder, there have been instances of individuals being put on trial in the past. There has been a series of trials going on right here at Camp Pendleton for that very thing. Plus....those who did things considered improper were disciplined. I seem to recall a general was relieved and several others disciplined. So your hyperventilation about other people's `heroes' is meaningless, partisan crapola. TR> A few of them got made `a bit uncomfortable' during an interrogation? BA>I like your description of being beaten to death. And it's absolutely BA>predictable. I like your extrapolation of `a bit uncomfortable' into `being beaten to death'. The subject wasn't `being beaten to death'.....it was *waterboarding*. Try to keep up. --- *Durango b301 #PE** Origin: Doc's Place BBS Fido Since 1991 docsplace.tzo.com (1:123/140) SEEN-BY: 10/1 3 11/331 34/999 120/228 123/500 128/2 187 140/1 226/0 249/303 SEEN-BY: 250/306 261/20 38 100 1381 1404 1406 1418 266/1413 280/1027 320/119 SEEN-BY: 396/45 633/260 267 285 712/848 800/432 801/161 189 2222/700 2320/100 SEEN-BY: 2320/105 5030/1256 @PATH: 123/140 500 261/38 633/260 267 |
