U.S. Marine convicted of urinating on corpses of Taliban insurgents

WASHINGTON - A U.S. Marine staff sergeant who urinated on dead Taliban insurgents and posed for photographs with the bodies has pleaded guilty to two charges in a military court, the Marine Corps said on Thursday.

OMG..... he was fined $500 for this act. Very harsh and unjustified punishment isn't it?  :cheesy:
