He said the same in his first-term campaign. It's all empty words.

because the president can do whatever he wants whenever he wants

Speaking of waterboarding, I actually tried that on myself once in the shower.

Never been so scared in my life.

Never again.

Fuck waterboarding.

smh

People need to put pressure on the politicians at the state level. Obama says he wants to close it. If you care send your senators and representative a quick e-mail.

Damn, came in hoping the first post would have been "Cost of Freedom: Priceless"

Somebody is getting rich.

 

[Joel Was Right]

Is anybody on GAF actually for keeping it open? Wait. Are there even any conservatives/republican here?

 

[jimi_dini]

I know them feels bro, I had some friends do it to me just to experience it, not nice but i'm glad it works lol

Yep.
It also worked perfectly in case of witchcraft.

Torture them a bit and they will finally confess that they are witches. Isn't that great?

And I previously thought witches wouldn't exist. Silly me. <3 middle age.

the 74 that are too dangerous to release but won't be prosecuted, wft does this even mean?

is this code for innocent people that have been radicalized while inside getmo?

Because I was stupid and wanted to try it.

Between this and actually wanting to experience sleeping paralysis, I'm starting to think you're a masochist or something!

It means the government don't have enough publicly releasable evidence to convict them of any serious crime, but the government thinks they will commit a crime if released.

It's a complete violation of the principle of innocent until proven guilty, and an embarrassment for a nation that claims to be a promoter of freedom.

It means that the government has found these people suspicious of potentially possibly maybe committing a crime somewhere in the future.

It's like Minority Report, without the science.

Of course, holding someone without a trial will totally not radicalize his family and will never turn them into potential terrorists, ripe for the plucking by Al Quaida.

Torture works. FACT. nobody said it needs to work all the time did they.


So the yanks occasionally pull the finger nails off the wrong people a few times, big deal.

Someone should ask Castro to lower the rent.

It's not a fact. The effectiveness of torture as an interrogation technique has been highly criticized and there is little scientific evidence for its usefulness.

Of course not, but he shouldn't make promises he knows he can't keep. It's dishonest.

There are plenty of conservatives on GAF, but they generally keep a low profile.

You say that now, but I'll bet a little torture could change your tune.

Maybe. I also pissed on a electric fence once.

What a rush. >.<
