You see these terrorists that are flying planes into buildings, right? You see our cities getting shot up in California. You see Paris getting shot up. And then somebody complains when a terrorist gets waterboarded, which quite frankly is no different than what happens on college campuses and frat houses every day. And, you know, the man would keep this country safe. There is no question about it.

Then let's have a kegger, bro! You can be the first to play GITMO resident and I'll even bring the jumpsuit!

(20,878 posts)The CIA says it doesn't work, the FBI says it didn't work, the military says it didn't work or international treaties says it is torture and own military trials of other countries prisoner concluded it was torture. It is torture. The fact we did this post 9-11 is used by our enemies to recruit young men and women to do harm to us. AND IT DIDN'T WORK!! There is not question about it, but idiots like Eric still question it because they don't know anything about the world. They don't have to, their money insulates them from it. F this guy.
