You're seeing it from an anthropological and sociological point, I'm seeing it from a mathematical and physical education point. I think you need to see it from my viewpoint despite the fact that we're posting in Tilted Politics, but I can't explain why.
I do, I've not discounted your point of view or position. I've simply asked, how will MORE photos make it better? How does MORE photos make the underlying idea of saying that torture is bad and America shouldn't be torturing anyone stronger?
