They forgot the chalk outline of dead bodies on the streets of Chicago
Hilarious, a new flag. One of the stars represents the founding of the juvenile joint! Before the juvenile place opened they were sent to the next best thing, CPS
Waste of resources.
Looks like a three year old threw up his crayons.
