Are we quantitatively comparing individual instances of torture with individual instances of decapitation? Or are we quantitatively comparing the number of victims of torture with the number of victims of decapitation?
For the former, I'm quite certain there have been far more individual instances of torture than individual decapitations. For the latter, I'm quite certain there have been far more victims of torture than decapitations.
What was your point again? Did it have something to do with excusing torture because in light of decapitation, torture ain't so bad?
To that, I just shake my head in saddness.
