Honestly, I think if Marine leaders saw them pissing on bodies and bothered to care under the given circumstances, most would say "Hey, mother****er, cut that out. You're a professional killer, not a professional pisser, so go square your **** away and get ready to find some live Taliban assholes to shoot. I don't want you paying attention to your piss-stream and have some durka-durka ****head shoot you while you're otherwise absorbed. Plus, you know that ****'s going to end up on Youtube someday, so secure it NOW."

Then told the Doc to keep an eye on them for signs of PTSD or any mental condition which might make them combat-ineffective or dangerous to comrades. Probably given a speech to the platoon later that we're not going to piss on dead bodies or cut off ears or any Lord of the Flies crap like that, and anyone found doing so from now on would be sent to see the Wizard [shrink]. But punish them? For pissing on a dead body? Only if they were moronic enough to do it in front of the media, or like these unfathomable zeroes, post it up themselves.

Of course, some leaders might throw a hissy and launch into a speech on honor, courage, commitment...some of a more sadistic bent might just smile and walk off. I doubt anyone would be filling out paperwork.

Oh come on...every culture that goes to war dehumanizes the opposing force. How else do you get relatively sane young men to willingly kill other relatively sane young men? For King and Country! Kill the (Insert group name here...) for they are less than human! If those pushing wars did not find ways to demonize others there would be no war...plug other groups names into your statement, it is equally true.
I don't disagree with a lot of that, but I have to point out that the difference is that now we're at war against a concept, not a country. And we don't even demonize the right countries during it...

Perhaps it was an ancient evolutionary instinct and DADT repeal combined with necrophiliac urges:

An integral part of North American porcupine courtship involves the male urinating on the female. This act is perhaps best-described by Uldis Roze in The North American Porcupine, 1989:

“Perhaps the strangest aspect of the interaction is male urine-hosing of the female. The male approaches on his hind legs and tail, grunting in a low tone. His penis springs erect. He then becomes a urine cannon, squirting high-pressure jets of urine at the female. Everything suggests the urine is fired by ejaculation, not released by normal bladder pressure…. In less than a minute, a female may be thoroughly wetted from nose to tail.”

One source states that a male porcupine projected his urine from 6 feet 7 inches away.

Begging the question, what is better/worse, pissing on the body of a dead enemy, or beheading him while he is still alive?
Begging the question, what is better/worse. murdering someone that opposes you, or murdering and then filming yourself urinating on their body?........To be fair beheading is quicker and cleaner than most combat gunshot wounds.
Also did you just confuse ISIS for Taleban?

Killing an enemy combatant is not murder, at least not in the legal sense.

ISIS is beheading mofos all over the place...

I strive to avoid both deaths. I hope to die peacefully in my sleep, like my Grampa...not screaming and praying like the people in his car.

"than most combat gunshot wounds"

maybe look up that video of the guy getting his head sawed off with a knife.....

is there a survival rate for be-headings?

So to use your logic all gunshot deaths are those ones that take days to die.
uhhh....yours?

i think i would pick the option i would have the best chance of surviving...that's all.
