The American army. They disgust me. I have officially lost any respect that I might have still had for America. Even though they were taliban members they did that to... it's still sickening and disrespectful.

How do the recruitment posters look?


''Hey you, yeah you over there. If you're not obese and you're willing to put your life on the line for a country with a corrupted government and more problems than you can count, we want you! Also you must be willing to throw puppies over cliffs and urinate on people you mercilessly killed. But that's just a perk right?''

Why? Because you're image of the army and the government just won't allow you to say it's real?


Quote:
"Regardless of the circumstances or who is in the video, this is egregious, disgusting behavior," Department of Defense spokesman Capt. John Kirby told CNN. "It's hideous. It turned my stomach.


Quote:
The men in the video are not identified. A caption on YouTube says the men are part of the "Scout Sniper Team 4 with 3rd battalion 2nd marines out of camp lejeune." A senior Marine Corps official told CNN that the men are wearing helmets typical for the Marine corps sniper teams and that their rifles are 30-caliber sniper rifles.

You must not have seen much of this world yet then.

You base your respect of a country on how soldiers who get on the news act?

I can guarantee you this. Lots of people, in every single country on this planet, have urinated on other people. Alive and dead.

No, I don't think it's ok for people to do that. But in the grand scheme of things... It's not really such a big deal. People do alot worse, daily, all over the world.

You're either trying to stir up a debate about how terrible you think the USA government is, or you really haven't seen or heard of anything sickening/disrespectful before. Either way... The debate which will surely follow is pointless.

I wasn't aware this was called the debate section, I thought it was the DISCUSSION and debate system. And a debate is still possible by the way.


Are you saying that nobody should be surprised when a video of soldiers urinating over three dead bodies comes out?


Think the US government is bad? Think? Live here for a while and say that again.


Yes rape and murder happen every day, so what? Not even those are as disgusting as urinating on corpses.

Yes, I know. That's why I said "the debate which will surely follow". Because I predict a debate.

Watching that video has clearly made you angry, upset and/or frustrated. So I'll just ignore the rest of your post incase I make things worse.

I feel bad about this to, it MAY not be true, though its doubtful. its disgusting, there still people, no matter what theyve done. You dont urinate on there corpses when you kill someone, thats just wrong, but no, i dont lost faith or get angry at everyone.

I'm not really. Name any remotely likely thing and someone's probably done it at some time. I'm mildly indifferent to the world.

I agree it's terrible, but I don't think that the U.S. Army would say anything like that, my uncle is in the Navy and his crew mates were the nicest people I have ever met in my life.
Plus, they saved your life sooooo many times that you should be complaining about crap!

Hmm... leaving your uncle and his mates out of the equation, the US army hasn't saved my life in any way. All they've done is invade places that didn't need to be invaded. Also, there's a video of our precious marines throwing a live puppy over a cliff while laughing, and it's been authenticated. Look it up.
