The spade represents a card 
from the deck of playing cards that was originally made more intricate and darker than any other cards. So in England they had a colorist saying when referring to people of color "blacker than the Ace of Spades"! That's how the term became a racist term in America because the colonizers brought that term over on the Mayflower!
Why they use it as a symbol for BNWO must be all the backs getting blown out with that symbolon their bodies or clothing!
