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.
Nah I don’t believe that for a second sorry, you’re grasping at straws
No I’m not. It’s the symbol on every SS hat. I’m sorry, but I was being too generous before. I absolutely would have looked at it twice
I honestly don’t fucking care what you believe. I am aware enough about history to know the third most well known Nazi symbol.
You know, when I was younger, the History Channel actually showed WW2 documentaries. I’m starting to think they never should have stopped.
