May I suggest an alternate sign? Seems like an upraised middle finger would fit the situation.
He got lucky. Imagine what they would do to him if his name was "Gunther."
His name is "Hunter," so why wouldn't the the sign for it look like a gun? This would seem to be a Free Speech issue, protected by the Constitution, nevermind the fact what he is saying is his NAME!
