No, I'm saying its easy and brings no moral pangs to ignore the torture and killing of torturers and killers. I wouldn't vote to allow torture, and I wouldn't engage in torture.
But I'm not about to rail against the torture of the sort of people who did things like AQ and the Taliban do.
Don't give me some shit about "If you don't stand up to torture here, you're standing up FOR it everywhere." We're beyond that shit reasoning/sloganeering/gamesmanship, aren't we?
