PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — His U.S. Senate campaign under fire, Maine Democrat Graham Platner said Wednesday that a tattoo on his chest has been covered to no longer reflect an image widely recognized as a Nazi symbol.
The first-time political candidate said he got the skull and crossbones tattoo in 2007, when he was in his 20s and in the Marine Corps. It happened during a night of drinking while he was on leave in Croatia, he said, adding he was unaware until recently that the image has been associated with Nazi police.
I don’t know homie. Like I’m not one of those ww2 buffs and even I know that very specific skull logo. Like I get dudes in the military are your basic edgy Xbox live chatroom teenagers, but this dude’s reddit account became public not long ago and he is most definitely not a secret Nazi.
Id love to see that account. Nazi symbolism is a telling sign and Id still love to see what he said back up his past ideologies
