How much vital information is the "cold blooded terrorist" going to offer up if he's had his head removed as suggested above by djtestudo, or killed by a pig-lubed bullet as Elegant Holes reccomends?

I respond to calls for cruel and unusual punishment and I get told I'm advocating hugs.

The urgency implied by both the usage of capitals in the word NOW and the description of the "cold blooded terrorist" suggests you think that these people are planning daily and deadly strikes against us. In this storybook world, what vital information does our terrorist have that needs to be extracted with such urgency?

I think you over estimate both the danger, the capability and the menace that these enemies of the West pose. I certainly don't think we are so threatened by them that we need to compromise what is right in order to stay effective. We are so much stronger than they, we simply don't need to resort to tactics of desparation - which is what they are.

Once again I say, this is only a war in name - We are in actuality conducting a Police Investigation, rooting out members of a criminal group who have committed horrendous crimes against innocents. We need information - and if we weren't so heavy handed, we'd have our people on the inside telling us all the vital details.

I could be wrong.

Can we all at least agree that it's probably not sensible to advocate decapitation of captives as part of a simple tit-for-tat policy?
