wrong Rick. The evidence is that we torture regularly and harshly. we
murder, we rape boys. we outsource our horrendous torture jobs to countries
we label as despotic. No, we don't have the volume of say, a Hitler or
Stalin, but we do the same things. So.. the issue in your mind is one of
volume? We don't do much, so its ok?

I'm responding to your words.
The treatment of the detainees amply demonstrates the care that is
taken to not harm detainees. it shows how the military IS following
US laws against brutal torture. It shows that we DO respect them much
more than our enemies respect us.
on a scale of one to ten, with america at 1 and pol pot at 10, it's about a
1.1
period.
