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.

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.

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

^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.

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

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

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:

Waterboarding is a religious practice now?

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

    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start

      Could you come up with a slightly less depressing background for Tux instead of that gray gradient? Doesn't have to be cheerful, just less of a downer...
    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start by Paul Hill Credit: Larry Ewing It has been a few weeks since the release of Linux 7.1, and in that time, the Linux 7.2 merge window has been open, where developers can submit their features and patches ready for the upcoming release. That window is now shut, and the release candidate phase has begun so that new features can be tested and further fixes applied. According to the founder of Linux, Linus Torvalds, this week’s release candidate looks “reasonably normal”. Although we are super early in the release candidates, this is a good sign as it makes it more likely that an eighth release candidate will not be needed. Torvalds even mentioned that the update’s stats are only larger than they really are because there was another AMD header drop with a third of the patch just being AMD GPU register definitions, which aren’t big changes but make the code contributed look larger overall. In addition to this, he noted that just over half the patch is drivers, even when excluding the AMD register dump. The rest of the changes are spread out over architecture updates, tooling, documentation, and core kernel updates. In the next week, Torvalds says that he will be chilling out, taking the week “mostly off”. Despite this, he will be reading emails and keeping up with things, so if he is slow responding, now you know why. He said he is hoping for a calm week, but we will just have to see if the second release candidate is actually like that. We should expect seven or eight release candidates before Linux 7.2 is released, so expect it around the end of August. If you missed it a few weeks ago, be sure to check out our coverage of Linux 7.1's release.

      Ridiculous claim that the labor cost difference of $6000 annually would increase cost per phone by $200. The employees produce 3 phones per month or what?
