Re: Do you think water boarding is torture?
What we've done has not been the same, and this is the point. Trainees only get a taste. In a safe environment, with protections that the trainee has reason to trust.
But don't compare the two, and I wouldn't keep correcting you.
Still mistakenly riding the "it's not the same" train? I didn't say it was the same. I said if we did to a detainee many of the things we do to trainees on a daily basis, many on the left would call it torture.
But hey, if your only concern is trying to "win" a debate by repeating that they are not "the same"....knock yourself out.
