You’re fucking kidding me, right?
Someone said WE tortured that guy? Cause I sure as hell wasn’t there, and I didn’t even know it was happening until we came back to the garage and saw the cop with no ears bleeding to death.
Mr Blond tortured the guy. Now what, he’s trying to cut some plea deal by claiming HE’s rolling on US? What a pathetic sick joke. We left him alone with the guy. That doesn’t make us guilty. Anybody who tells you WE tortured anyone is a fucking cowardly liar. And ANYONE involved, except I guess Mr. Blond, will back me up.
Wait -- what are you saying? It wasn’t Mr Blond claiming “we tortured”?
Who the fuck is Mr. Sepia? He wasn’t even on this job. What do you mean he confessed?
Wait a minute. When this Mr. Sepia says “WE” tortured that guy, is he saying while the rest of us were out, he personally went in the garage with Mr Blond and helped cut the guy's ears off? Well, that’s obviously some bullshit. But fine, let him rot in prison with Mr. Blond.
…
Holy shit. What are you saying. I gotta sit down.
Mr. Blond is NOT in prison, and he’s not dead? Mr. Sepia is the top cop’s boss and he’s worked out a deal where Mr. Blond gets off with no charges, and somehow really WE’RE ALL guilty? Jeez, that means I’m a target now. That victim had a family. And some very tough friends.
…
So Mr Sepia is saying We tortured a hundred OTHER people — including dozens of innocent kidnap victims -- and that we’re ALL guilty because the torturers and their bosses were real patriots, torturing for US. And that We have thousands of secret torture photos and even changed the law so We can keep them secret.
Here's some advice based on professional experience. When a perp you know who's getting immunity starts confessing about what We did, you are being fucked in the ass. If you trust the perp, you're being conned. You're at risk. He's making you his human shield, counting on your cooperation, your silence. And if you are silent, you've just become complicit in a crime you might even be punished for.
So in my own self interest, and because I have a shred of integrity, I'll insist those aren't my fucking torture photos, they shouldn't be secret, and anyone who says they tortured for me is lying -- defaming me, my fellow citizens, my whole country -- and probably belongs in jail.
I’ve stolen a lot of valuable property. I’ve even killed people. I’m not proud. I did what I had to do. Sometimes I’ve wondered if deep down, I’m an evil person. But when I see what these people are capable of, the murder and the torture and especially all the lying and abusing power and getting away with it, I feel like a fucking choirboy, like I’m mother Teresa. THOSE are evil people.
I've never tortured anyone, I'll never help anyone else get away with it, and I sleep better just knowing I’m a professional armed robber and not one of them.
