    As a society, we should strive to be better than the people we judge for their crimes. Torturing people is just wrong, cruel, and unnecessary.

      I’m sorry you feel that way. Maybe when you get more life experience, you’ll realize that most scumbags will only avoid engaging in heinous acts if the deterrent for doing so is appropriate.

        If that was a deterrent you wouldn’t have people still working for Mexican cartels, would you?

        Let’s say we do decide to torture murderers. Who is going to torture them? Are we going to pay for these people to have therapy (because they’re really going to need it)? How would you feel if you found out your next-door neighbour tortures people for a living? What do we do when we find out, years later, that we’ve been torturing an innocent person?

        I think you need a little more life experience so you can realize that things aren’t as simple as you seem to think they are.

          Gee, how did we ever do it in the past? It’s never been done before, lol.

          Study history, then come back.
