US soldier gives four-year-old daughter 'waterboarding' over alphab

[Rob2687]

Joshua Tabor allegedly told police he had used the technique because he was angry and knew his daughter was scared of water.

The 27-year-old, who had recently gained custody of the young girl, said she "squirmed" as he pushed her under the water three or four times, it was claimed.

What a sick freak. Fortunately he'll never be allowed near her again.

It's a terrible thing that this little girl had to suffer this. I wonder if the father was suffering from post-traumatic stress or something?

HOLY COW!

Seriously... WOW... wtf! :s

Jail the swine, and then ensure he leaves the forces in the most dishonorable fashion.

Agreed. I can't imagine anyone waterboarding an adult, let alone a child. Takes a really sick person to do that.

[null.]

Wow, that is truly awful. How anyone could do that I'll never know. :/

[etempest]

I do think he will be losing his recently obtained custody of the girl....

his punishment should be his crime against him.

He had served 15 months in Iraq. The girlfriend said that Tabor had an "anger management problem." He is definitely sick.

I was stuck at that part where Ratchet surf the broken nefarious space station. I kept falling down and couldn't get of the circle station.

I has been trying for atleast 2 days and after more than 500 attempts I finally made it.

I thought of giving up after getting depressed then I thought it not what I want to give up.

Thought to share it with u guys...

sick bas***d...

^I'm guessing you quoted you're post from another thread by accident.

This guys definitely needs some help, you can't be a normal human being if you water board your own kid.

How is it relevant that he's a US soldier ?

Other than that, dishonorable discharge and time in jail + anger management sessions are in order..

Agreed - this is almost certainly a sign of more deep-rooted issues.

I'm assuming that some may believe that he suffers from Posttraumatic Stress Disorder.

[Black Flash]

Also is it just a coincidence he decided to use water boarding?

[iamawesomewicked]

Stupid soldier.. Should not have been allowed to breed in the first place.

"But Waterboarding isn't torture.. right guysssss.. Oh, it's only torture when it happens to little girls though."/sarcasm.

[TrueMonolith]

Im sure cheyney will be around to say theres no law against parents using "enhanced interrogation tactics" on their children.

Waterboarding is clearly not torture.

It's not exclusive to Army, or for what matter, US Army, it's quite possible that it is used everywhere, of course you wouldn't know about it because it's not something you talk about.

About PTSD, it's not just soldiers that "get" that, so I still don't see how it is of any relevance that he's a soldier in the US Army (or whatever).

Going as far as saying that he shouldn't have been "allowed" to breed is just.. err.. crazy. Regardless of what he did, no one has the right to deny him of having children, yeah not even you internet warriors.

Someone who would use a torture technique on a four year old girl and leave bruises on her throat should be allowed to have kids? There are people who shouldn't be allowed to have kids for less.

Okay, from the article, this

Is a horrible thing to do to a child and should be punished to the full extent of the law and lose any and all contact with the family

But this was no where near what actually water boarding is like and bares no resemblance to what actually happens when someone's water boarded. Her head was dunked under water, a horrifying thing for someone afraid of it, but with water boarding your physical body is made to think it's drowning, not just the mental fear of it, but your physical reality is that you're drowning and going to die. These things are worlds apart. Horrible, but not on the same level.

Considering less then a handful of people have ever trained to water board people, the fact that he was a solider probably has little to do with this whole thing.

Without the tenuous link to water boarding this is just one case of countless horrifying child abuse cases that go unreported upon in this country, by the same willfully ignorant media so quick to jump on this case.

So this story has little to nothing to do with the child abuse, which makes the article significantly more evil, as it's destroying the lives of the victims and bringing them to a spotlight to make some political point that's tenuous at best.

Damn non-muslims doing their crazy religious practices. If he were muslim he would have simply honor killed her. :shiftyninja:

Yeah, what he did sure showed the difference between them and him, right? :rolleyes:

[xpablo]

Well he held her head under the tap of running water, so it simulates waterboarding, what kind of Piece Of Sh*t does that to a 4 yr old.

Waterboarding is a religious practice now?

Is it the 11th commandment (Thou shalt waterboard an unruly child)?
