What is a tuning fork?
A tuning fork is a tool for tuning musical instruments. It was invented by a trumpet player named John Shore (1662-1751). The tuning fork is composed of a handle attached to the center of a U-shaped steel rod. By striking the rod, sound is created, and the frequency of the resulting vibrations per second is used as a standard for tuning a musical instrument.
What is the meaning of the tuning fork mark?
The three tuning forks of the Yamaha logo mark represent the cooperative relationship that links the three pillars of our business -- technology, production, and sales. They also evoke the robust vitality that has forged our reputation for sound and music the world over, a territory signified by the enclosing circle. The mark also symbolizes the three essential musical elements: melody, harmony, and rhythm.
What is a hoo?
The hoo, a Chinese phoenix, is a mythical bird of luck, long revered in China alongside the kylin (an imaginary fiery horse), turtles, and dragons. Its appearance is said to herald the birth of an Emperor possessing saintly virtues. The front part resembles a kylin, and the rear that of a deer; the neck, a snake; the tail, a fish; the back, a turtle; the jaw, a swallow; and the beak, a chicken. In addition, the feathers of the hoo are said to feature a five-colored crest. The design featuring a hoo holding a tuning fork in its mouth was established as the trademark in 1898, one year after Nippon Gakki Co., Ltd. was founded. The trademark was used on organs.

To be honest, I find this narrative easier to believe than secret agent, high level cover-up conspiracies designed to panic the public and guide public policy. The world is filled with angry young men and throw in a mix of social media and firearms and there's no reason to stage anything IMO.

Cops kill a bunch of innocent black people causing massive protests nationwide against the encroaching police state.
Government "strategy of tension" agents respond by killing some cops and pinning it on a convenient black patsy.
Police state FTW.
What makes any of this harder to believe than angry lone gunman?

Why hasn't he been sacked?
Why hasn't he been arrested?
The NEI has been variously described as the “Director’s own program” and as the crown jewel of the FBI’s executive training initiatives. It has led to the design and implementation of the Bureau’s Law Enforcement Executive Development Seminar (LEEDS) program and the Leadership in Counterterrorism Program, or LinCT.
