I am so sick of seeing this OBVIOUS FUCKING LIE used as a justification for torture.

IT NEVER HAPPENED you dumb fuckos. Torture hasnt saved us from shit.

I am so sick of receiving this as a response to anti-torture emails or postings elsewhere.

There is no proof that torture accomplished anything. Where are these fucking idiots getting this BS news from? Why did I never hear about a thwarted attack?

*bangs head on desk till the madness stops*

3. Uh-huh. And the little pieces of paper I throw in the air prevent rhinoceros stampedes, too.
It's a FACT that we've not had a single rhinoceros stampede since I've been doing this. It's NOT littering, so STOP saying that.

4. Isn't that the one where they got the name of the building wrong?
Remember that "terrorist" cell in Florida who just wanted new boots? That was really cool.

The chimp, the big dick, and all their cronies should be strung up as an example. (After a hasty trial, of course)

5. Torture prevents fake attacks that were never going to occur
The real laugh is that they actually cost us money to watch for ridiculous, made up scenarios. The only benefits derided from the tortures were the benefits (pleasure) that sick f***s like Cheney and gang got from viewing them.
