Legalize Truth Serums propaganda poster

Description

I created this series of propaganda posters for a college art class. They generally are making fun of some of the more ridiculous discussion that were going on in America during the War on Terror.

This one focuses on (albeit on a very superficial level) on the issue of torture and the arguments that I heard for and against.
It seemed like so many of them focused on whether it works or not (it's been very difficult to find good evidence that it does), and not on whether it was justifiable from a moral context. I also got tired of hearing actual "experts" and elected representatives throwing around the name Jack Bauer, a fictional character!

The other pieces I created are:

I don't think torture is right. If you torture someone, most of the time I imagine they would make something up just so the pain stops, or if they're really tough, they might say something like, "You might as well kill me, because I'm not talking."
