There's a small thumbnail of it below the non-working video.  I see something that looks like leaves or maybe hands.

This is stupid.  Give the kid his sticker.

You've got to be kidding me...

When Harry Truman was President of the United States, he had a sign on his desk in the White House that said: "The buck stops here." If Barack Obama had a sign on his desk, it would say: "The buck stops with Bush." - Thomas Sowell

Here is the "gang sign" it's supposed to look like...

I need a few stiff drinks after seeing this, are these people totally paranoid about the picture of hands ?

People do talk and communicate with their hands, are all French, Italian, Portogeese and South Americans to now have their hands tied behind their back when they speak ??

Hell even the Irish wave their hands about to make a point.   So whats with this gang signals that are known to just a few hundred out of the hundreds of thousands that live in that neck of the woods.

Politically incorrect here.   --------- A White male child drew a picture that won a prize.    Next thing you know Adults are taking magnifying glasses to it to find a problem, and they claim the hands have gang symbols.

I need a few more drinks to make this anyway normal to me.    Won't hurt as I need a good bracer for what is to come.

During the EMT portion at Ft Sam we were instructed not to use a defib unit on infants, so that gesture often accompanied randoms call-outs of "Don't shock the baby!"
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

I'm no expert, but I'd say the hands look like any hands would look after they toss a cap in the air.
