So Democrats gang up against Mamdani in NY, yet are not speaking out as much against Graham Plantner in ME?

24. RE: PLantner. There are some who argue that his ink was applied while he was in active duty and that getting a tattoo

is part of many military service people's lives. My father, Iwo Jima vet, came home with two on his arm. An anchor and a mermaid.

My mother: "John, I'm not good enough for you?" She always had a sense of humor. That's where I get mine from. Anyway, you and your buds are on leave, get drunk and hit the tattoo parlor.

Did Planter know the background to his tat or was it a challenge to enemies he might face in future. Does the fact that he covered it mean that he knew at the time or that a someone pointed out that the image was not cool.

But let's assume he did know and it was a statement of Nazi views. Then, he changed his mind. Can a person make mistakes and grow from them?

Then we get to me. If you knew me when I was in my late teens and 20's, you would not have liked me. How 'bout you? Have you changed your views on anything - stuff you wouldn't admit to friends and family?
