think about what the military envisions when it reads this. I wonder if this'll put an end to torture or if it'll make it much worse. | ||

I wonder if this'll put an end to torture or if it'll make it much worse. technology like this would make that basically unnecessary and you can just do whatever with the felons after you've got what you need from them so it would be helpful for "law enforcement", but this technology wouldn't really affect those who torture for other reasons so i guess the FBI better get it's union reps on the phone to stop this technology being pursued amirite! | ||

I don't like nuclear power but I'm all for putting more research into it (this might be wishful thinking, but maybe one day we will have power from controlled fusion), and I'd endorse keeping genetically "enhanced" products off the market, but once we know for sure that they won't do any harm (to us and to the environment) I have no qualms about using that technology either. | ||
