| Message | We could support if an indication of what constitutes torture is included. Otherwise some smarmy lawyer may claim that not allowing his client to watch Dancing with the Stars is torture ( or that making him watch it is). |

| Message | Radical Libertarians underestimate justice system of our great nation. Our judges are more than capable of telling what is and what is not a torture. |
