A Chicago high school honors senior wrote an essay that described a dream where he shot people and then had sex with their dead bodies. He added that it was a joke but the school must not have seen the humor, they had him arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct.
He had planned on joining the Marines, but after the arrest, they no longer want him. I don't blame them. No matter how the student tries to explain what he wrote, it still shows a lack of maturity if he thought this was appropriate for a high school essay. The men and women who would have been serving with him don't need to deal with that.
