As the Serb media heightened the pitch on its accusations that all Croats were fundamentally genocidal, Mihajlovic published a cartoon in January 1990 showing a Roman Catholic prelate with a rosary made out of the eyeballs of Serb children, with the Serb infants, their eye sockets empty, surrounding the prelate.

Although it is used as any state insignia, none of the symbols of Serbia adopted on August 17, 2004 are in fact official as per the Constitution of Serbia, as it can be changed only through a 2/3 majority vote in the Parliament and a referendum.
Since the likelihood of meeting the constitutional referendum criteria was low (as several previous attempts failed in the early 1990s), the government changed the usage rules of the symbols, thus temporarily overriding the constitution, on the grounds of the national consensus that the old and outdated socialist symbols were inappropriate.
