I was in the woods with my friend, walking around high on shrooms(best shrooms I ever had to be honest).
No lights and all you could see were trees, then we turn a corner, and i see a bunch of lights.
I looked at it for a moment, then a sudden rush of panic came over me because I was convinced it was a UFO that landed and aliens were comming for me.
I looked at the lights, and I could see bodies coming at me. I said to my fiend "We need to leave" but she didn't understand what was wrong. I said "ok you can stay here, but i'm gone" and i ran away.
turns out it was a cottage, and the 'bodies' were just branches from the tress swaying in the wind.
:x still about as scared as i've ever been. |

Okay, so (avoiding the well-worn Nazi examples) the soldiers who tortured political prisoners for the Soviet Union ought not to have exercised judgment over whether to inflict lots of pain on prisoners, only over the most efficient method by which to inflict it? |
I think Zewad has explained it well enough. To put it succinctly; enlisted men obey orders, officers give them... Officers are accountable as to whether or not the orders are just, enlisted men are accountable as to whether or not they carried out the orders they were given. Soldiers ordered to do anything are to carry out their orders, failure to do so is deraliction of duty. If ordered to torture they should confirm the orders, once confirmed they should carry them out exactly as specified. This is how a military runs. |

I must ask, in addition, what necessarily makes a military "officer's" orders any more sacrosanct than the commands of any old Mafia boss. Why should the simple fact that your employer is an agent of "the government" make an order more binding than it would be if he were a private individual? |
FYI, if you are an employee of a firm and you are acting on your employees instructions in regard to business affairs your employer is responsible for your actions... not you. This is call the Master-Servant principle. The only difference with regard to military operations is that the business of the military can include activities that would otherwise be illegal and that failure to comply with the duties of your employment is a criminal offence (in most countries). |

Raaaaaaaaaabid anti-dentite!!
Also, one time my brother and I got locked in the trunk of our mom's car. We were in there for a little over an hour. We almost died, that was probably the scariest thing evar.
I still remember the sound of him suffocating as I tried to kick the trunk open :( |

| When I was 10 or so, I was on one of those amusement park rides with the big fake boats that rotates vertically on a pivit point... such that is stops upside down for a second or so approx 50 feet off the ground 3 or 4 times. Well the first time it did this the restraint on my thighs came unlocked and opened. Thankfully this ride also had a set of restraints across the shoulders; however, the next 3 times it went upside-down my legs were floating/falling free.... I was a little concerned that the shoulder restraints may have been insufficient... thankfully they were not. |
