A few days ago I saw a car with a sticker "Free Tibet" with a Tibetan flag on it. I made a GIF and if my memory is good the sticker looked like the above image.

I was walking home from school, when I saw this sticker on the bumper of a car. Now, I think it's Turkish in origin, but I'm not 100% sure. Does anyone know what this is? I drew it to the best of my abilities, but there is a sabre on it, and I had to use the one from the Saudi Arabia Flag. The actual sabre does not look as thin as the SA sabre, but it's sharp end is MUCH more wide.

The "flag" (which is actually a logo) belongs to the Shriners, an international charity quite popular in the States and dedicated to provide free medical attention to Children.
You can see the logo at the Shriner's web site (www.shrinershq.org). It doesn't look exactly like the graphic of Mr. Voscorian but since he acknowledges: "I drew it to the best of my abilities... [and] the actual sabre does not look as thin as the Saudi Arabian sabre, but it's sharp end is MUCH more wide" there's no doubt about it.
