>>759332I didn't intend for this to be used as an image, its just a sample image I picked up on google and shoddily tried to make transparent to overlay on the COA.
The concept was the hand gesture itself being contra-prohibition.
The original hand sign besides everything (being associated as "V" for "Victory" and whatnot) supposedly was used by archers to mock a king telling them their fingers would be cut off if they fire with their bows and arrows.
<The "archer's two fingers" (V-sign) is a legendary, likely mythical, gesture of defiance where medieval English/Welsh archers allegedly showed their middle and index fingers to the French after the 1415 Battle of Agincourt, taunting them for failing to cut off the fingers used to draw their bows. It's debateable if it was three fingers or two.
It aligns with the COA piercing the prohibition symbol, so it seems fitting.
Really odd that out of all the things I posted, someone decides to use this peculiar image that wasn't even intended as a symbol in it of itself.
Also cocaine has been turned into a "bad guy" movie trope, hollywood wants to associate big bad guys (usually a russian mob boss) with cocaine use in movies. Meanwhile people like Sigmund Freud who saw its potential uses for the depressed are neglected.
I get that you're trying to portray the hypocricy, porkies in high places tend to get away with just about anything.
