I look at torture the same way the Shawnee did....
"You got caught and I know you are very embarrassed about that, so here's what we're am going to do....I am going to torture you and give you the opportunity to show us in the village how brave you are....If you do a real good job there is a chance that someone here in our village will be so impressed with your bravery that we may stop the torture and adopt you....So here is the gauntlet...Make a run for it and good luck...Chin up and be brave..."
Both Daniel Boone and Simon Kenton went to their gauntlets and torture spitting, laughing and mocking their captors and both were adopted due to their bravado..
Just another way of looking at torture through the lens of history....
