We Won't Prosecute You If We Humiliate You First?

Sustained isolation, sleep deprivation, nudity and prolonged exposure to cold, leaving prisoners in a "life-threatening condition," this is supposedly torture now. Unpleasant, certainly. Torture, certainly not.

Torture: crushing body parts or removing them without anesthesia. Bamboo under the fingernails. Impaling. Stretching on the rack. Burning. These are torture. Panties on the head is not torture. Humiliation and torture are not synonyms.

Soooo. . . we are not going to prosecute somebody who should probably be dead already, because we made him uncoooomfortable. Great. No offense ladies, but there are some jobs that a woman shouldn't have, and this woman has one of them.
