Urination at War: Don’t Be Mad at the Peeing; Be Mad at the Killing
What a world we live in, a world in which peeing on dead people yields more moral outrage than killing them in the first place.

“war is the very worst thing there is. And if you command an army, you better the fuck understand, in your probably cowardly, definitely privileged, likely draft-dodging bones, that when you send soldiers out to fight and die, they are going to do some unconscionable, irreversible things. And they are doing it in your name. Because you told them to.  And pissing on a corpse is a FUCKING POEM compared to issuing an order for beautiful young people to go and kill other beautiful young people in a land far away, because you, in essence, “felt like it.”                
 -Rob Delaney
Be mad at the peeing too. It’s all totally wrong.
