    Help with some art? Need a Gadsden snake in shape of a B!

    This is for a Libertarian friend who is running for state rep. His last name starts with B.

    There is no Republican in the race, so it's L vs D. The incumbent is a pretty popular D, but it will still be interesting to see how many votes he'll pull.

    I would advise him not to use a snake in his logo.

    Its kind of creepy if people dont get the reference. Yes I get it, but its a dumb idea.

    You say this with out knowing anything about the demographics of the people that will be voting.
    "The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles." —Jeff Cooper

    Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

    The assessment of "dumb idea" is a bit extreme, but he has a point. Unless your demographic is very specifically known to be amenable to such symbolism and what it means in this application, I might re-think the stratagem. Forget that so many people are creeeped out by snakes. Consider the broad assessment of the average nitwit that the "Don't Tread On Me" position is that of whack-0s. Unless you know you have a strong demographic in support of the liberty position, I might choose other means of getting their attention.

    Just my worthless opinion, of course.

    There is only one correct way: freedom. All other solutions are non-solutions.

    It appears that artificial intelligence is at least slightly superior to natural stupidity.

    Our words make us the ghosts that we are.

    Convincing the world he didn't exist was the Devil's second greatest trick; the first was convincing us that God didn't exist.

    I'm not an artist, but it looks like a B like this one could be made out of a coiling snake.

    'We endorse the idea of voluntarism; self-responsibility: Family, friends, and churches to solve problems, rather than saying that some monolithic government is going to make you take care of yourself and be a better person. It's a preposterous notion: It never worked, it never will. The government can't make you a better person; it can't make you follow good habits.' - Ron Paul 1988

    Haha! The reason VoluntaryAmerican gave, and our PM conversation, is why I didn't send over the other.

    If there are any references to other ideas/images, I'll keep an eye out.
