16. something that always confuses me too
I've seen DU posters rail against Abu Ghraib and Gitmo on the same day that they post wishes that people are raped in prison.

The US has ALWAYS tortured foreign nationals (Operation Phoenix and the creation and training of the SAVAK) and I'm not sure how being sent to prison for 25 years for smoking pot can be viewed as anything other than torture.

Many DUers seem to view violence in prisons as part of the punishment and obscene.
