Torture Techniques Revealed at Gitmo

[ShadeHonestus]

Hm, if someone is utterly offended at the idea of torture, I don't know if I'd call them any names.

What names? I called that stance as I clearly defined as cheapening that argument which they wish to make.

There are people who are morally outraged by abortion in all instances, and they believe as they do from principle.

But they call for it in reference to the protection of life under the law. Abandoning the need for legal code in a cry against torture makes any moral high ground illegitimate imo. Saying no to torture in the absolute without discussions in an unmocking display does not further anything. Why would you not want this all to be moved under a legal house.

Likewise, there are pacifists who reject violence. I don't necessarily agree with any of them, but they can certainly be principled, decent people, who are not necessarily subject to any moral decay or neglect.

Of course there are, but they don't ignore the need for law. In fact most that I know argue the illegality of almost any violent action.

I think your analysis should take into account people of good faith who arrive at different conclusions.

I believe I have. Going so far as to explicitly state such.
