Here's an idea.  Put a single black stripe across the logos like the
police put on their badges when they have a fallen officer, or like
the FDNY and NYPD stickers that honor those that were killed in 9-11.
This would show the logo so you knew what was being mourned, and could
elicit some questions and conversations as to the meaning.
