ORIGINAL: PeonForHer I get that you're Chinese and that you claim to be moderate, Greta. But you must see that the Chinese are dangerous. Peon, I don't disagree with you that Chinese are power hungry people and should not be allowed to rule the world. It is in our DNA to want to crave for wealth, power and prestige, basically, all the big things, that's why chinese children are push so hard to be good in everything and not allowed to have play or any opportunity to be a child in their childhood, to not have a single disadvantage in this world, and every advantage to rise above the rest, so training to be good at everything starts from birth. I just read an article today, chinese mom makes her son study 16 hours a day everyday and she's not letting up as that was how she was brought up. That's so typical chinese. There is alot of hunger for wealth/power. That's why sometimes when men complain chinese women are materialistic, I roll my eyes. Especially white men who likes chinese women and then complain they are materialistic. It's like in our DNA, I always tell them, honestly white women are more suited for their appetites, as white women tend to be less materialistic over all generally. quote:
Therefore I know what *you* could be like. If I were to suspect you of terrorist activities, I'd have no compunction about your being tortured to find the truth. You *do* understand that and agree with that, don't you? I think problem here is, yet again, is, your example is assuming, just because torture is legal, its the equivalent of torture being used unfairly ALL the time, and there is not gonna be proper procedures and before deciding whether this case really needs torture. In my example of, if you know a bomb is going off very soon, that could kill thousands of people, and there is strong intelligence information that this person is involved in it, critical moments like this, torture should be used if all else fails to coerce information. But your example is simply saying, go out and torture anybody and every body because of stereotypes of that person. Now that wouldn't make any sense. Then you'd be spending too much time torturing masses of people, torturing blindly, it's not very smart. I mean it's like death penalty, there will be a due process to ascertify if the person is guilty before putting that person to death. Same as torture, and we gotta trust that, that process will 99% of the time, make the right decisions. Or if it doesn't, then we gotta fix that process to make sure it keeps getting the right people.
