The history of trying to define things like "torture" as what the "good guys" don't do has a long an storied past, none of it successful.

You see a lot of Taser marks on people's genitals?

Cops have used clubs for years, that doesn't mean you can't torture someone with a club.

You know, a cop would taser you once for a few seconds. That poor guy got tasered repeatedly, including his genitalia. How is this not torture?

Most of the time. Cops are known to torture people with tasers in the US by using them for long periods of time or repeatedly.

And on the genitalia too. There was that Chicago police squad that tortured suspects with a cattle prod to the testicles to coerce confessions.
