I consider torturers and their supporters no less scum than child molesters

[NNN0LHI]

I would never leave my kids unattended around people who would torture or advocate torturing people for even short periods of time. If I found out one of my child's teachers was pro-torture I would demand that the teacher be removed permanently from teaching and being around children.

These are not just some misguided people we are talking about here. The pro-torture crowd are some very sick people. They are beyond demented and are incorrigible. They will never change. Even using Clockwork Orange tactics on them would never change them.

So if you happen to know someone who is pro-torture my suggestion would be to be very careful around them. Even if they look completely normal in appearance don't fall for it. Ted Bundy looked about as normal as one can look.

Torturers are the people you grew up with who enjoyed pulling wings off of flys. Or who liked torturing cats and dogs or some other animal when they were young just for the fun of it. I suspect many of you may know some people like this. I know I do.

My two cents on this issue.

1. They do walk hand in hand.... I agree. You may have to take

your children out of school.. They will be teaching this as law now, and teachers will be instructed to teach torture friendly curriculum.

2. I agree

someone who thinks torture is okay is not a civilized person or someone you could trust.

4. It's obvious to me that the torturers

at Abu Garab prison were mentally ill sex deviates. I wouldn't want them around my children either. I wouldn't want them around convicted criminals. Anyone who could see those pictures and approve of that kind of treatment is like-minded.

5. A great comparison.

Since they want to legalize torture, and since many of the tortured could end up being children...

Sombody should run with this!

We just need to win the election first.

8. They Are Potential Serial Killers Too

Almost all serial killers tortured animals when they were children. Yeah I would not demand they remove the teacher, tho while attendign a few PTA meetings I would "accidently" drop the information the teacher supported such sick crap. And I would insist my kid be immediately removed from that teacher's class and insist they be put in a sane liberal's class.

Most child molesters do not murder their victims and are harmless otherwise, they are genuinely mentally ill. I have more sympathy for a chid molester, and *none* for people who think it is just fine to torture. These torturers are just "legalized" serial killers. They murder people as well. God forbid if they are ever let loose in anyone's home town.

9. That's true...

"Most child molesters do not murder their victims and are harmless otherwise". But they never go after the real criminals, only the "potential" ones. Meaning, while one guy is just staring at a kid, another guy is killing one. Who are the people in the neighborhood going to go after? The "quiet" guy who was just staring out of his window.

The government wants that "guy" to be anyone who's not in that 30-something percent now.
