what differentiates torture or not is guidelines on a paper.

most ppl today would agree, that waterboarding is torture. in guantanamo it was not considered torture as long as a few guidelines where followed. guidelines, like at what angel the prisoner is laying on the floor…

i can very much see firing squads go wrong - leading to a drawn out, painful death.
