Are you uneducated? Did I say my own opinion? A thought-experiment is an extreme hypothetical situation to examine all areas of a situation. Something you refuse to do.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thought_experimentWhat if the USA had caught one of the 9/11 terrorists before it happened? Is that fantasy? Would it have been justified to torture them to find out what was going on?You would obviously have let 3000 innocents die. That may be “moral” - I don’t know is it? Unlike you I don’t have all the answers.

Purposefully infiltrating the government in order to change its natural course in favor of an outside entity is treason.

I was thinking more of the writings of founding U.S. statemen. If your school actually had you read those, I’m surprised.

Which techniques, and which ones were torture?

Plotting against the government is treason… I think its a pretty straightforward concept to grasp

Did someone actually think they didn’t?

Considering that the Church of Scientology abuses the legal system and has committed treason against the government and the people, that’s a pretty good idea. Shows how fucked up your government is when it allows a treasonous organization to continue to exist.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.Your definition is the most general I’ve seen and the most vague. By your standard, getting your brother the cop to fix a traffic ticket for your mother-in-law is treason. It’s not, it’s just plain criminal.

Oh he’s already working on it. I can’t remember if it’s called the north American union or some thing else but the idea is some thing similar to the EU. Why is such a thing bad it takes away our independence. Plus any thing planed or thought up by this Government is a bad idea. I’m proud to be Canadian and sorry to say at the present time more proud to not be American. Not to say that I don’t find allot of you cool.

Any chance we can redirect some of the anti-hillary venom in the Obama movement to these bastards, where the anger would be justified and the results actually beneficial?
