No Pain, No Gain!

Postby Canada Remnants » Sun Apr 17, 2011 5:56 pm

The Issue

Due to the recent capture of a foreign terrorist in Canada Remnants, high-level military officials want the government to authorize torture to extract information about other terrorist activities.
The Debate

1. "Torture is the only way that we can get these idiots to tell us anything," says General Jazz Longbottom of Canada Remnants's special forces division. "After all, violence is the only shared language we have with these scum."

2. "Are you kidding?" states political activist Prudence Summers. "Torture never works. If anything, it should be outlawed. What do we want to become, genocidal maniacs?

3. "There's nothing wrong with torture, but we can't make it too obvious," says Secretary of Defense Charles Jong-Il. "How about we simply ask them nicely, and then, if they don't tell us, we kill them? That's better just from the intimidation."

What options 1, 2 and 3 do?

Option 2 rises civil rights but for some reason it made suicide in police custody rise.

I suspect that in that case the police are still torturing suspects, and are then simply claiming 'suicide' as the cause of death for any who actually die under torture... :(
