A few less testicles in the world...now is that REALLY a problem?
Seriously, perhaps having the ability to THREATEN to crush testicles is as helpful as the act of crushing them. When you start these kind of discussions, people then believe it won't be done and the threat becomes worthless.

Only if the child was a terrorist.....duh.
******
Hate sucks.
When we were kids and were told not to resolve problems with violence of anykind...
The sad thing is its happened, really happened, the torture of children. Worse for their safety, in the country's it did, the people of that country would not believe it of their country either, until it was happening to them.

Father Chuck doesn't know sh*t. Real conservatives know what's up. John Yoo said "yes". Read a damn newspaper.

Can he? It could possibly be interpreted that way.
Would he? No, only a sick twisted mind would even think to question such a scenario.

Every time a soldier dies or a child is tortured, we can all feel safer.
