"The majority of people today find it more abhorrent to be tortured than to be simply killed. Maybe you are an exception, and you'd rather be tortured than simply killed."

"simply" killed? whew...haven't seen that particular poll, and don't think much of polls anyway, but given such a dreadful either/or choice ( even worse than what's offered to voters!), do you really think many folks would say they'd prefer death?

how about legal, lawful war, then, that says, "simply" kill everyone, but for god's sake, for justice and morality's sake, don't you dare hurt them...?
