I don't really agree with the form of torture...waterboarding. I've been taught to treat others the way you want to be treated so I don't think torture is the way to handle problems. I have some mixed opinions on this issue. If I was falsely accused of a crime I wouldn't want any possibility for something like that to happen. I wouldn't want anything like that to be possible to happen to anyone I know. If it would keep our country safe by waterboarding terrorists, I would rather have the possibility of one person, the terrorists, suffer from water boarding than having many people suffer in an attack. Many people what others want to hear even when they aren't being tortured so this issue of lying about what they know would just increase under these circumstances. When I think about waterboarding, I think of what other countries would do to the U.S. not the other way around.
