Good Observation! I studied gang graffitti for a while in college. It's too bad they can't take their intelligence.. (note their "high level of sophisticated code language-hand signs, graffitti") and use it for something positive. THey don't have a clue. I usually share this link when gangs are brought up..hope you don't mind. http://www.gangwar.com/

WRT: the graffitti...Did you see a crown or a pitchfork?

Folks and People:The Folks and the People are Chicago's largest affiliation, and they are found in most large Midwestern cities, as well. Folk affiliates use the number 6, the six-pointed star of David, an upward -pointing pitchfork with three prongs People affiliates use the number 5, the 5-pointed Star of Islam, a 3 or 5-pointed crown, a downward-pointed pitchfork, and a dollar sign as their symbols. They usually wear their identifiers on the left side of their bodies. People gangs found in the Salt Lake area include the Latin Kings, and the Vice Lords.

latin Kings Emblem: Five pointed crown, five pointed star, lions head with crown, code of armor. The most recent emblem is the bulldog with a crown.
