@israelblog the constitution bans punishments w/o conviction. I feel confident the founders did not intend this loophole.

@wycats well that’s where we disagree. These are the same people who put slavery into the constitution -
@israelblog So your position is that the founders intended to allow torture without conviction? -
@wycats no my position is that the Constitution is not a moral beacon & not a source of ethical guidance -
@israelblog yes, I can see you want to argue about that, but I never argued the contrary.
