I'm writing a paper and whether or not torture is a justifiable act. I just wanna hear some your opinions, later i'll put up some scenarios to see how you fell about them.

Thanks

What context do you mean justifiable? On a personal level to save a family/friend or innocent's life in immediate danger via info someone refuses to divulge I'm sure if you're capable of using drastic measures you'd use it as the right thing to do perhaps... I'm not sure if justifiable enters the equation in those discussions. Just like I'm pretty sure if we're getting invaded on the homefront by an enemy using infantry wave attacks, all of a sudden the use of mines won't seem like a bad or unjustifiable weapon- rather the right weapon for the moment.
