Shame

I was unprepared for the percentage of Americans who think torture is sometimes called for.  Experienced interrogators say that torture doesn't work, but that is not a question that interests me.

That our leaders ordered torture, and that so many of my countrymen are OK with it shames me deeply.  Torture should be considered un-American.  That so many Americans don't agree makes me ashamed to be an American.
