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.
Because most people don’t discuss Nazi symbolism on a regular basis?
Hes a veteran who made lists of obscure battles for fun, if you believe he had no idea the meaning of it you’re dillusional or a bot. He has in the past refered to it by the german name the Nazis gave it. And since Trumps first terms many many people have looked more into that imagery since it’s becoming more common, so that’s not even a strong claim, they do discuss it now more than any time since the war itself.
You’re telling me this Marine never watched a WW2 documentary?
