I would classify torture as something more than just making you uncomfortable, and something you would not voluntarily endure for training purposes.

Waterboarding? VERY uncomfortable, but yet our guys voluntarily endure it for training. Not torture.

Pulling your fingernails off with pliers? Torture.

Taking away a favorite goat? not torture

Back in my college days, the practices now referred to as “torture” were called “hazing.”

Why are liberals so upset about torture when Hollywood has turned every single TV-cop into a torturer?

Chicago PD, Hawaii Five-O . . . all cop shows beat and threaten as if it is SOP.

Isn't torture accepted as normal in Hollywood?

A: that’s not fair ...

Nothing is torture if that method or worse are condoned by the leaders of the enemy in question.

For instance, being boiled alive is not torture for ISIS members because they condone that on others. ISIS simply sees it as standard punishment.

So it is perfectly legitimate to use even boiling alive as a method of interrogation and even punishment.
