Aah. Even more of the same. Just can't lose, can you?
I made some points in my last post, you just didn't like them. Your last post was strictly intended to insult me in the eyes of others; you added NOTHING to the debate.

Yes I did, and seriously... so what? Isn't the whole point to get someone to fess up? Won't happen if they're in the hospital for the next week.

Disemboweling is torture to, and I somehow don't think that one is gonna make anyone's "Sure, I'll give it a try" list.

And again I ask, where do you draw the line? It's torture. You do it to your neighbor and you would end up in jail. And this is exactly what the radio guy said: "Sure, I'll give it a try." How much do you want to bet he won't try it again, now that he's experienced it and admitted it was torturous? And I really don't expect to you take that bet unless you first try it for yourself.
