Chicago - City Clerk Susana Mendoza is investigating whether gang signs are in the artwork of the new Chicago city sticker just days before the sticker is set to be printed.

The sticker was picked as the winner in a city-wide contest and was designed by a 15-year-old boy who attends a school for troubled youth.

It is a really ugly sign but I am missing what makes it a gang sign.

"Since submitting this new city sticker design... Little Herbert has had MANY "police & juvenile section contacts" and is now a self admitted Maniac Latin Disciple...

Look at his city sticker design. The HEART is the major MLD Gang Symbol. Look at the hands pointing up to the hats on that sticker... Look closely at the fingers and how they are being held...The 1st finger in front of the 2nd finger with the thumb extended back... It's the pitchfork sign. A normal drawing of the hand would not have each 1st finger extended past the 2nd finger."

From dictionary.com

“o·fay
[oh-fey] Show IPA

noun Slang: Disparaging and Offensive .
a white person.”


Shortly after the 2008 election, I went to 0bama’s site, ofa. It had an image of Organizing for Amerika, with Dan Burton writing. I haven’t been back since.

0bama’s entire gig is an FU to America, it’s heritage, traditions, culture, industry, and power. Always was. Always will be.

Neither can Rahm (but he has an excuse)!

The 6-pointed star, the heart, and pitchfork are all symbols of Folk Nation gangs. Black and blue are their main colors and they associate with wearing accessories on the right instead of the left.

If you were “in” the poster the black and blue hat would be on the right and the red hat would be on the left. The EMS symbol separates them as blue and red have eternal hatred for each other.

The red, white and blue image behind the skyline is the City of Chicago Official Flag.

Dude. I'm very impressed. Hopefully you do this for a living :)

I think maybe a better question is whether there is ~any~ symbology that can’t somehow be twisted into some sort of gang sign.
