I forget which commenter suggested the flag depict a chalk outline of a body a few months back, but I still think that was pure comedic genius, and absolutely appropriate.

With the fine Latin Motto “Ubi Est Mea?” (Where’s mine? Hat tip to the late Mike Royko) underneath the skull and crossbones.

May the new flag burn brightly when the last mostly peaceful protest torches the last standing building in Chiraq as it turns into a heap of ashes

The red is for social change.
