Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Don't let them run over you, but I promise it you start being assertive and treat them with love and kindness, they will stop.

Ask them.  If they won't admit it then you will have to beat it out of them. If you need effective torture techniques for getting information out of CIA agents then you have to submit another question.

Torture is the one....I get uncontrollably violent if tickling persists\n\nThere is an old English saying\n\n"Avoid a tickled Englishman with an axe in his hands and panties on his head!!"

You are not in isolation, as it ia general problem, especially if you are in competitve life.  Your sucess could be your biggest weakpoint, as it fuels their hatred and that is why it is better to keep discrete distance from all such characters and not to reveal your pesonal matters/plans.

You know, I am never shocked at what one human will do to another, even without just cause.  Torture is in my book an effective means of gaining information, but completely inhumane. Any national of any country technically is forbidden to engage in torture during wartime; as far as I understand the Geneva Convetions. But who is actually going to refrain when they believe their cause for doing so is justified? As for the question of should anyone have the right to engage in torture, I'd have to say level the playing field and let a war be a war again, stop trying to civilize the most uncivilized act possible!

Most of us suffer from some for of post traumatic stress disorder.  Especially those who saw combat.  We were programed to kill people and break things to act as police in the most unusual chaos without the training to do it.  I remember being told to suit up in MOPP gear, a chemical weapon suit and learn how to fire so I could continue on with the mission when all I could think of was getting the hell out of the contaminated area.  also taking a life offsets you years after you do it.  Especially the bloody ones or the younger ones.  You usually have no choice but you dwell on it constantly when you get out.  Best solution is to talk with other people who have experienced what you have, don't break any confidences but open up as much as you can.  it has helped me some.

Thanks for the statistics you provided above.  A true Christian or a ethical person will almost never support torture.  WWJD applies even to agnostics if they are ethical people.  Peace!

The quikest way is to stand up to anyone trying to take advantage of you. Stand up for yourself and do not allow anyone to walk on you. Learn to say NO. And do not be afraid to smack someone that won't take No for an answer. Please only resort to violence as a last resort though.

Turn it around.  Just be humble or straight forward...which is a strength.  Know who you are dealing with.  Take it in stride.  What is the worst thing that can happen?\n\nI was embarrassed once by another who was threatening me to death in front of a room full of people.  Actually, it became a nervous laugh, almost hysterical.  I ended up being beaten unmercifully.  Laughing is like waving a red flag in front of a bull.\n\nRise above it.

Keep him guessing...  =)\n\nJust kidding.  If evil ones who hurt others are treated with generosity, some may react well, but others who are bullies will take that as a license to abuse.  So, use wisdom.  My personal rule is give someone three chances.  AFTER THAT go after them, so they remember never ever to repeat.

Knowledge  is  the  remedy,   once  you  understand  (like  knowing  people  who  use  filthy  language  are  scum)  you  Will  tell  them  to  shut up  until  they  learn  manners.\nLearn  martial  arts  so  if  someone beats  you,  then  you  can  whack  them  back.\nIf  someone  ill  treats  your  wife,  then  you  should  know  better  that  you  don't   beat  them  for  verbal,  but  again  tell  them  to  leave  until  they  learn  manners.   \nWhat  are  you  actually   afraid  of  ?    really  ?   understand  that ,  then  learn  how  to  deal.    Even  when  you  are  afraid  start  standing  up  a  little  bit  at  a time.   Eventually  you  will  develop  a  backbone.            good  luck

Ask Sen. John McCain...\nHe has first hand knowledge about the use of torture having undergone it while a POW in Vietnam.\nNO!!!!  We are the United States of America... and that USED to stand for something! We used to be leaders in world efforts for human rights and against the use of torture.  Now we do it ourselves!!! If we are lowered to the level of those we appose, then what does that make us?  \nAnd finally, it has been proven that information gained from the use of torture is not reliable and other means of interogation that do not use torture are more effective! So why are we using it?????

Outcry? What, from our liberal media? No, to them torture is having women's underwear on your head or being made to stand naked and have your picture taken. That's the liberal idea of torture.\n\nThe media doesn't want to focus on this because it might strengthen our resolve to kick some terrorist butt. It might remind the general public what animals the terrorists are. The media won't even call them terrorists - they're "insurgents" or some other such namby-pamby term.\n\nThey're terrorists - ISLAMIC TERRORISTS! And they're animals. If we don't stop them over there, they will come here and show us what they really think of our freedom.
