re: #285 Islamo-Masonic Conspirator

It’s easy to come up with one-off circumstances where this could be true. I.e. you happen to have a rifle and you know that a person is unknowingly carrying a bomb/plague/whatever into a town and you don’t have time to go get him/you’re chained to the ground, so you shoot them.

These situations are not, however, real, or applicable to torture, because in the case of torture you can always decide to use another method. You never are like “Welp, torture is my only option”.
