The Publics Opinon

Most People are against torture in the U.S. mostly because its cruel and inhuman. How can we let a human do such a thing to another? The answer is we can't. We should not allow this to happen to anybody no matter the crime. I believe that we should only be allowed to do torture only in the "bomb tick" situation, or to save many innocent lives.

My Opinion On Torture

I am against torture for the reason that the victim not only suffers in that moment, but for the rest of his life. Also because torture doesn't always work, it only works if the victim gives the information. I also believe in the so called "Ticking Bomb" scenario, where someone is allowed to torture in order to save lives for example a bomb threat. Torture is wrong and will always be wrong unless it is used to save Innocent lives.

The Wrongs Of Torture

Torture is inhuman because it inflicts unspeakable pain upon the body of a fellow human being. Torture is wrong because not only does it effect a person physically, but it effects them mentally. It Inflects so much pain that the victim will be scarred for the rest of their lives. For example the CCVT (Canadian Center for Victims of Torture) explains that the victims suffer from many problems like anxiety, depression, nightmares, etc. Torture is an inhuman act that shouldn't be supported.

The Rights Of Torture

Torture is basically used as interrogation for getting information or a confession, so theres not many things positive about it, but that. Using torture enables the torturer to get the information he seeks or the confession. These are basically the only rights of torture.
