Re: Marines urinate on dead TalibanJordan,That seems like a bit of a simplistic view. How exactly does the Marine Corps teach you how to handle the stress and make sure it works? Make sure it works for every single young man and woman that joins the Marines? Make sure it works in every case and situation they might encounter? It is patently simplistic and foolish to suggest that several weeks of basic training and a couple more months of job specific training magically yield young men and women immune to ever acting badly, even in the worst of circumstances? Have you ever lost your self control and regretted it later? Ever have a moment of poor judgement? What they did was stupid and wrong but to suggest what you say about the training for handling stress doesn't make sense to me.I'm gonna check out of this thread now because I don't want to exhibit poor decorum. I am glad you all have your opinions. You are welcome to them.Loren Jones
