The Repub Debate


Recommended Posts


 

 

 

 

So then the questions?

1. Who decides what the definition of torture is or what is torture?

I mean, don't you think some people feel that handcuffs, zip ties, a jail cell, a small mattress,might be considered torture?

 

 

You may have missed the discussion on the Geneva Convention or the United Nations convention on torture in HS history class.

 

If so....

There's a lot more info on the internet if you search for it.

Ugggg

Clearly we are talking about if there was a change.

Who is suggesting a change?
It seemed like Moraine, Knapp and Zoogs were. I could be wrong, perhaps they are not.

 

I am as well...For me personally it would be "torture" to be in a cell or be handcuffed.

 

Also, like we tell students, no Wikipedia! (We do tell them that, over and over)

Then you clearly haven't been handcuffed by the right person in the right circumstances.

 

And ya being in a cell would be torture. But not on the level of anything we've been talking about. Plus, waterboarding is on top of already being in a cell. Not instead of.

I'm hoping more Republican candidates drop out fast. That's starting to look like the only hope for Trump not to be the nominee. Dunno why Christie's last hoorah was taking on Rubio. Maybe he'll support Trump.

 

That is probably more of a temporary thorn in Rubio's side than anything. It's rather obvious the establishment still wants to coalesce behind Marco. Bush and Carson are clinging to life... Jeb has oodles of money but would have an easier time falling out of a boat and missing water than gaining traction.

 

Personally I'm hoping Trump wins the nomination and gets waxed by the Dems in the GE.

Yikes... Hillary Clinton? Nothing like having a complete criminal as our president...

Bernie? Hello, socialism...

RE: the torture discussion, you guys (especially those pro-torture) should check out the movie Unthinkable. Perfect illustration of how innocent people get dragged in when you start allowing these sorts of things. Really gripping movie.

I'll definitely check that out. Thanks for the reference. Is it on Netflix?

Not sure, but you can rent it for like $2 on youtube or amazon prime, or just find an illegal stream of it.
