Frankly, I think the SEALs should be severely disciplined for unprofessional conduct. Personally I'd give them a very hard slap on the wrist and only buy them 1 beer each...on the first round.

Still not buying it.
They were in a hostile situation with a chopper down. They had to have an idea that they could easily have a substantial amount of bad guys come down on them any time. Why would you burn up ammo on somebody already croaked when you may very well have to croak more guys? Plus they were snagging as much intel such as his pron tapes and computers and such.
I still think they are more polished professionals than that.

This is total bullshit, this did not happen. This is the liberal press doing this crap. This did not happen!!! Another way to kiss the ass of the Islamists. We are going to get our asses in a sling if they(the liberal press) keep telling us how we need to embrace Islam. We are kissing the ass of Satan by always saying they are peaceful, they HATE us!!! They would slit our throats in a second.
I call BS for a variety of reasons. I'll believe a few rounds to make damned sure but don't believe anything like a mag dump for a minute.
Me either Bert. My take on it is that it's all BS. Not trying discredit/disrespect our troops by any means, but Osama was on dialysis for kidney issues and moving around A LOT to avoid being captured/killed by forces that were hunting him like a prize trophy deer. My guess is he's been dead a long time and I find it rather convenient timing that Obamajama claimed responsibility for aiding in the location and killing of Osama Bin Laden. On another note, I was in the middle east when Sadaam Hussein's boys were killed. Their bodies were pretty beat up and they still showed their dead corpses all over the news like a hunter that just bagged a prize buck. They even showed the gold plated brace in one of their legs proving it was in fact them who was killed. You're not going to convince me that the man allegedly responsible for the worst terrorist attack on American soil was killed by U.S. forces, then just conveniently "dumped at sea" because his body was too riddled full of holes. That is one time the American people would've cheered and clapped to see that dead POS's dead, bullet riddled corpse on their television. To me, every person who lost someone on 9/11 deserved that closure. Call me a tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorist all you want, but everything about the "killing of Osama Bin Laden" smells rotten.
The character of a man can be judged by how he treats those who can do nothing for him
Good for them. 3-1/3 magazine's worth of ammunition pales in comparison to flying jetliners into skyscrapers in order to kill noncombatants.But SOFREP says that other sources have relayed to them that that is a dramatic understatement, that SEAL Team Six members pumped, at bare minimum, at least 100 rounds into Bin Laden’s body.

If there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to buy a gun, there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to vote.
For legal reasons, that's a joke.
Once upon a time it was common practice for every member of the team/squad/platoon that made entry to "dead check" any bad guys that they moved past in the course of clearing the structure. Bodies with 40-50 bullets in them weren't at all uncommon. Once upon a time..
