I suppose this is old news for you Virginians, but I thought it was funny that the new ad campaign for "Live Passionately," a variation on "Virginia is for Lovers," turned out to feature a gang symbol:But, apparently unbeknownst to tourism officials, the gesture is used by the Gangster Disciples, which the FBI calls “one of the most violent of four African American gangs that hang out on the South Side of Chicago.”Oops.

I guess I need to get out more, I never heard of the motto or the relationship to gangs. The biggest news in Va. lately is the new fine schedule for driving violations. No turn signal---1,0050.00 Speeding 1-15 over---1,050.00 and so on down the line of minor offences but don't worry you will have 1 year to pay it off. New Motto----Drive Carefully.
