TORTURE SHOULD BE ALLOWED AGAINST TERROR SUSPECTS
Saving time saves lives
Sometimes there is a very limited amount of time until a terrorist attack could take place, and in these situations time is of the essence, and it is of the upmost importance to gain information quickly and accurately. Torture is a very quick way to gain information in comparison to regular examination, and so would ideally help address any imminent threat.
Although threats to public safety are obviously urgent this does not mean that the gathering of information should be rushed. This can lead to inaccurate information and possibly the loss of more life. Traditional, non-torturous methods may take longer, but are more garuanteed to produce an accurate response.
