I disagree. I think hateful people need to be shamed for their hate. They need to be called out for it, all the time, everywhere they go, by all the types of people.

Not necessarily confronting him directly, but reporting to an employee, or taking pictures and link the social media account of the park. If they don't already have a policy regarding neo-nazi tattoos, they'll come up with one very quickly after that.

Interestingly I never saw swastika tattoos before last year. They are definitely more brazen MAGA!

So you won't confront him directly but want a teenager working an $8hour summer job to do it?

Some of you really need to retire your ivory tower ideas about these fools.
Sit down
Be quiet and stop thinking you know who you are dealing with.
Those of us who are the targets of these TERRORISTS, don't find it endearing, don't think you are an ally against hate and really... you need to take a seat before you get us all shot up at the waterpark and anywhere else.

That won't be helpful and guess what, people like that are crazy and your ridiculous mumbling does nothing but put you in harm's way.

I'm ok with that risk. I can throw a little crazy back his way.

Aren't you cute, huffing and puffing in front of this man. Those people are not folks with outrageous views, people whose politics are on the fringe and just happen to differ from yours. These people are TERRORISTS, they are violent and dangerous. They want to commit genocide on people of color. It's cute you want to 'throw a little crazy', they want to kill me.

Girlfriend you are a suburban mom in a Lands End tankini. This is a white supremacist. Please put your earrings back on and stop acting tough on the internet .

Me too. I wouldn't cause a scene, but I'd throw some shade and disdain.

Those types are generally cowards, so I'll take the slight risk.

With a shaved head? Doubtful.

YOU do nothing. The people at the waterpark will know exactly how to prepare his food or drink if he visits the snack bar.

Big talk.

But OP lacked the courage to say even a single word to the guy.

So she wanted to tell on him and get some other person to violate the guys civil rights because she hates his point of view (and yes - swasticas are disgusting, but not as disgusting as eliminating freedom of speech - which OP wanted to do).

Sigh. Yes, the man has the freedom of speech but a private waterpark can ban "offensive symbols" like swastikas from their property, assuming that the jurisdiction doesn't provide specific protection for political beliefs. If the waterpark is owned by the government then I agree that he could not be asked to put on a shirt or leave.

PP should understand the Bill of Rights before he gets disgusted the next time.

Second, you don't know his story in any way or his current beliefs. Third, even assuming the worst, hate is part of the world - seeing a tattoo is nothing.

+100 (also a mom of mixed race kids, FWIW)

LOL. I am sure the waterpark employees will be all over that.
