* On Sunday, he dressed in his old uniform and strung himself up on a ten-foot cross to draw attention to his 'unjust' dismissal

A discharged Marine who strung himself from a ten-foot cross during Denver's 4/20 celebration on Sunday now regrets the protest which has been branded by many as sacriligious.
Former recruiter Joshua Klohr was kicked out of the Corps last year after complaining about the job to superiors. Klohr was subsequently court-martialled and found guilty of insubordinate conduct, disobeying a superior officer and failure to obey an order.
On Sunday, he sought to draw attention to his plight so he strung himself up on the cross across from the Colorado state capital building while the rest of the city celebrated it's first legal marijuana holiday.
