   Woul’ve been awkward if Blondie were doing the Vulcan salute; Rat’d suspect she being a Trekkie.

   If you are looking at Blondies hands … You might be gay.

   It wasn’t a gang sign in the 1920’s. You know, when Blondie was relevant and funny.
   Seriously, it’s time to retire any cartoon over fifty years old.

    Rat is an hysterical hypocrite. Of course, the City of Chicago just recently had a huge controversy along these lines….

    I agree with Rat. “Blondie” should have been removed from papers AGES ago.

    Some of us like Blondie! My husband can identify with some of Dagwood’s antics. It’s easy enough not to read a comic if you don’t like it. Just this morning we both had a good laugh at Dagwood. And the strip has kept up to date with modern trends.

    I just can’t think of a response that wouldn’t be lewd….

    It doesn’t have to be a real gang symbol.

    
    Today’s strip is a satire of the stupid real-life controversy mentioned by Sisyphos….

    
    A 15-year-old kid won the annual contest to design the City of Chicago parking sticker,
    but a week later his design was tossed out after some people thought the hands he drew might be flashing gang signals.

    
    He and his art teacher both say they’re not…
    but the city clerk says it’s the perception that counts and not the intent.
    The kid is heartbroken …. and the runner up withdrew her design because of all the attention.
