So which is worse. Put yourself in both shoes. Is it worse to be wrongfully accused because of laziness / mistake/ whatever and be put thru sleep deprivation and threats, both of which do not create any physical harm?

Or is it worse to be killed because of laziness / mistake / whatever?

Anything's better than death.

However, If and when I'm in the AF and I'm shot down and was about to be captured by Iranians (c wut i did thar), I'd shoot myself in the head.

No way am I risking going out the way of Daniel Pearl.

point is, we have people crying about torture of innocent people, yet doctors kill people everyday and there is no outrage. all we do is raise their salary so they can pay the insurance.

its called perspective. both are bad, but to different degrees.

Why torture at all?

Doctors have no choice if they're trying to save someones life...

your argument fails, so does the poll.

I think it actually depends on the extent of the sleep deprivation.

I remember reading somewhere that there is a point of sleep deprivation where your brain stops functioning properly and you literally go 'insane'- you competely lose touch with reality and just slip through the cracks. I think I'd rather be killed outright that subjected to severe sleep deprivation. Being kept awake for a few days so that I'm edgy, uncomfortable and stressed (i.e. in a torture or interrogation scenario) wouldn't be anywhere near as bad as losing my own life.

But of course you're right Marine... both are undeniably 'bad' to different degrees. Just that I see different degrees within the area of 'sleep deprivation' itself.

From society's perspective, sleep deprivation is preferable. The victim can at least potentially contribute to society in some way after the ordeal is over.
