I watched the John Adams show on HBO last night and was reminded of the many Revolutionary War era flags that contained a snake with slogans such as Don't Tread On Me. I thought given the current possible legislation the snake community might consider adopting a similar logo. Specifically I was thinking of a segmented snake with names of snakes like Boa or Ball python replacing the original states names. If a quality T shirt could be created and sold with this or a similar logo where the proceeds went to whatever organization(s) are helping the cause it might be a good way to get many people to donate and show solidarity. I know I would buy shirts for my family and me and wear them proudly.

I think this sounds like a good idea.Any good publicity can or should be helpful.

I think that is a good idea.
Had had similar thoughts, but not the T-shirt idea.
It's a good one.
