Such people amuse me greatly. It's brilliant. I do know plenty of perfectly sane, normal people who do believe in this stuff, though...

I speak almost-fluent French but I can't write it at all. Strange mental block there. I speak and write decent Hebrew, but only with nekkeudot (vowels). Same for Arabic.

Those are my own opinions. It's a simple persuasive mini-essay based almost solely on ethos.

Well, the USA is a firmly established member of the Security Council whereas NK is led by a stark raving lunatic, who I still maintain is not stupid. And the USA is on my side, so...?

Yes, thats what we need. We should become more evil then the terrorists because as long as we get results the means dont matter. Why bother with human rights or even considering the ethics of a situation when we can be assured of results. Why dont you wake up and realize were in a civilized society already, your totalitarian bs is way past the expiration date. I ask lefties that question every day. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ask yourself this: [hide=If you're squeamish, DO NOT open these hide tags.]If you were captured by an American agent and threatened to be tortured, what would you do? Well, let's say you try to hold out. Waterboarding can't be that bad if some idiot talk show host can manage it for six seconds, right? I mean, you're a trained member or Al-Qaeda's elite. You could do it for ages. Right? Wrong. Alright, that didn't go so well, did it? You gave them some false information. You're in trouble now aren't you? Because the Americans come back, having checked up on this information, and have realized that you were lying. Great. What will they do now? The interrogator takes out a knife and says "Buddy, you're going to tell me the truth right now or I am cutting off one of your testicles." (Kudos to whoever figures out what book this is from). What now? Well, obviously you don't want that to happen, right? But you can't tell them the truth... So you lie. "Live a lie" Well, what do the Americans do? They go and check up on it. An hour or two later, and you're missing something that's kind of important and you're in some VERY serious pain. So now the American asks you again: "Want that to happen again? Lie to me. Want to avoid it? Tell me the truth."[/hide] Do you honestly think there is anyone alive who can withstand torture completely? I can tell you there isn't. The CIA instructs their operatives that if they are captured by a terrorist group not to attempt to withstand the torture, because it's impossible. They instead ask that the agent merely stall. The terrorists can stall all they like, but eventually, they, like everyone else, will crack.

You're unbelievably immature, do you know that? You think I'm an idiot because you don't agree with me.

I could produce identical results by searching "arguments in favor of torture" on Google.

Magekillr, how often do you make posts that are your own thoughts? I can't remember the last time I saw you make a post without 60% of it being a copy-pasted article.

We sorta live in between the US and other scary-communist countries like Russia and NK. I wouldn't be surprised if a rogue missile dropped from the sky and exploded an entire Canadian town :thumbdown: :| You're kidding... right?

I love how you all say that Kim is stupid. Do you really believe that a stupid man could rise to a position of that power? That said, I despise him, so don't start on me with your "Robert supports police states" BS. OT: This is one hell of a scary situation. A lot of people clearly don't realize this: North Korea has EVERYONE in their country on the reserve list for the army. EVERYONE. They have the right idea. In the event of a war, they'd be nearly impossible to take down...

Actually, show me a post I've made that is factually incorrect. You can't use my authoritarian beliefs as stupid posts just because you don't like them.

Yeah, I kinda gave up on that. Fight fire with fire?

:roll: Oh, joy. Please, show me a stupid post I've made.

Nominated for stupidest post of the year.

You're a complete and utter moron. We have Prime Ministers here, you idiot. My family members are all steadfast Liberals. I love them to pieces, but they piss me off with their political attitudes.

They're great fun, but I would definitely suggest getting an enclosed one. My friend nearly broke his neck on one once.

College party? Going to my sig. Waterboarding is torture, yes. And that's exactly why we should be doing it to terrorists. Why shouldn't we?

I don't get to say who can use them and who can't, but I sure as hell can have an opinion on it. I need a thousand different permits to knock down a tree on my own property and none to complete decimate my city's traffic. :roll:

They're not your streets. Sorry, whose streets are they? I'm a citizen of Canada. Most of them probably aren't. This has nothing to do with Fascism, you dull-witted imbecile.

You caught me. That's exactly why I rolled my eyes. Maybe you'll someday realize that these jokes aren't funny. Want a funny joke? Why did Princess Diana cross the road? She forgot to wear her seatbelt. Inb4RudeComment :lol:

It'll never get through. Trust me.

:wall: Unnecessary personal attack? No, wait, that's only the case if I do it. Thanks, mods!

Yes, they got my attention. I wanted to run them over.
