Yeah, humiliating captured enemy soldiers, well thats kind of expected, and soldiers should have the strength to laugh it off. But these wern't soldiers. These were civillians arrested on the slightest chance of a crime being committed. And being stripped naked while someone has a guard dog leaning in towards you trying to shred you to pieces is just a bit of humiliation isn't it? What about those who died while in custody, are you suggesting they died of shame?


Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
