Pissing on dead people gives you confidence?

Yeah in a sense, I just meant, If I pissed on a dude after I fought them It would be like the ultimate "Come at me bro" like It would just make you feel superior, in turn giving confidence/morale.

Have you ever killed somebody who hated you for everything you stood for and used that hate as fuel to do anything to kill you? Then were you able to walk away without any sort of celebration of your victory?


Didn't think so

While it is quite clear to me that OP is both uneducated and ignorant, you have to admire his dedication to trolling. Nobody can actually believe this is typical American behavior, let alone keep posting in this thread trying to prove his "point". Bravo, OP. bravo.

Holy fuck there are so many retards in this thread.


IT'S CALLED WAR. YOU ARE TRYING TO FUCKING KILL PEOPLE. WAR IS SAVAGE. PISSING ON SOMEBODY IS NOTHING COMPARED TO FILLING HIS BODY WITH BULLETS. I'm very much against the wars in the middle east, but it's war. Expect it to be barbaric. If you canadians don't like American soldiers pissing on bodies, go fight the war yourselves.

Honestly I don't know why I'm going to post in this shitstorm thread, but why not.
I just want to start off by saying I am not stating my views on this subject because honestly I don't even know what to think or believe was right and wrong in the video.

With that being said: Hypothetically, if the Taliban came into America and I was fighting them and I got killed I would not care at all what they did to my body. I wouldn't care because I would be dead, lifeless. They can do whatever they want to me after I'm dead, it may look like me, but I'm not there so it seems pointless to me. Honestly what did peeing on them really do for the American soldiers? Again... the fact that they peed on them in the first place seems pretty pointless to me.
I don't know, those were just my opinions typed out as they went through my head.

Wow the way I said that was very hypocritical of my own statements. I didn't mean so much that "I will not state my views" but I meant to say "I will not take sides". If that makes sense. Sorry

this is the fucking problem. " celebration of your victory " - americans can't win anything without everybody realizing it, they're like the douchebag of the world. Have some class, you've already won the war, your "celebration" should be coming home to your fucking families.

also this post needs some recognition - to the guy who said " i wouldn't care what they did with my body " - you're a goddamn retard. it's not you caring about what they did to your body, it's the fact that what they did had residual effects surrounding where americans and their allies stand in the war, who knows, what they did could make the pulling out of the war that much harder because I'm sure the taliban will want to respond to this, so it's not about the bodies or what happened to them theoretically , its what the soldiers did and how thoughtless they really were

None of us pissed on anyone! everyone is different, im sure canada has cocky dudes just like America, these kinds of people are everywhere! Countries can't be judged on over published videos. ya know? Like two days ago, I witnessed a woman who was driving an ATV and got hit by a car, completely severing her leg from her ankle down, plus bones sticking out her hand, and collar. I dropped my whole day to warm, elevate, hydrate. that poor woman with my best blankets and knowlege I got from being an Eagle scout. Claim!

People never know how they will act in intense situations, but I never will judge someone on a position I have never experienced, I can't tell you if I would piss on someones dead corpse! but I'll be damned to sit on my computer and act like I have a clue.

I feel like this relates to the whole "fuck da police" theme that runs around a lot. One video of a few, select people of an organization (military, police, whatever) doing something that is deemed wrong, and suddenly everyone associated with that group are exactly the same.

"Typical Americans" Fuck off. Hitler killed a shit ton of people, so obviously every German is a psycho nut job, right? No. Quit being ignorant.

Yes, this act might be deemed as wrong, seeing as how being in the military is "your job" and you are supposed to act accordingly, but then again they are also in war, something I, nor most of you reading this will ever experience. It's pretty easy to bitch about how wrong some people are while you sit on you ass at a computer, while never stopping to think about what kind of situation they are in.

Don't stereotype all americans simply because you saw one video where some americans were acting "wrongly."

Just like the police issue, the amount of videos showing the group doing things deemed as "wrong" will greatly outweigh the videos of them acting "right" simply because who wants to watch someone doing their job correctly.

Take some time to think about stuff before you make such rash claims.

And on a final note, OP you are a fucktard.

About five years ago my roommate Jim was killed in Afghanistan. He was blown to peaces. I remember hugging his mom and dad at the funeral and trying to hold back tears walking by his little brothers and sisters as they sobbed in their chairs. Would I have pissed on the man who took his life? Maybe. I don't know. No, they should not have pissed on them and filmed it but you never know what events might have led them to this point.

you're taking everything i say and running with it, I'm saying americans are narcissistic to put it generally, am i saying that every american would piss on a body they killed? Not even close but these goofballs made your country look like a bunch of douchebags. If one of those bodies was your mom, dad, brother or sister, would you want them pissing on them? Im sure thats a rhetorical question. It's the respect thing and americans don't seem to have it. yeah I'm making a stereotype ,maybe a large one, but a educated stereotype to say the least

And yeah I've never experienced it, have you? Who are you to tell me that it would effect your psyche enough to go ahead and do this, in fact , if you watch the video they seem to be enjoying it. Im sure there have been more instances where soldiers , american soldiers, do something more respectful with the bodies rather than piss on them, but the fact they took this too far doesn't even surprise me

Almost every person I have met from the army was a complete douche. Now I am by no means saying they were fucked up to the extent of these guys (pissing on dead bodies) but they were still not very good people in general.

I am sure there are many genuinely good people in the military but it sure does seem to be the kind of job that attracts a lot of messed up people.

I'm pretty sure I just read about some US soldier who killed himself because of racism and teasing from his "comrades". When I think of the people I know who are in the military, I can totally see them being those bullies.

I guess it's a touchy subject though because it is these guys who are over their fighting for our freedom. Also because I can imagine war turns some people pretty crazy.

So first of all I think that the OP chose his thread title maybe to provoke a discussion, get more attention or whatever, I dont support that titasl though, you cant just say "typical" of anything by watching a few videos,...

But I also think that the soldiers there (in the vid, not all of them of course) probably arent the smartest and didnt think about the consequences of their doings.
There are lots of similiar cases among soldiers doing stuff like that. I remember some pics of german soldiers posing with skulls, bones of dead enemies.
First of all people just shouldnt do stuff like that. Its about showing some respect, even to your enemies. Its also about honor. Imagine what your family at home would think if they saw pics of you in the news pissing on dead bodies. Im sure they wouldnt be too happy...
Also it just raises the tension in the war areas.
Videos like this are going to be used by the taliban or al quaida to get new recruits and convince people they are doing the right thing, resulting in more hatred and more people getting killed.
