Can I bring my snake in the park, mall, etc etc where dogs are allowed

I think it would be ok to bring the snake to the park. I personally HATE when people bring their big huge dogs to the park, they scare me--but people do it any way, and I never give them weird looks. I just stay out of the way.
(Reason for fear: I'm 4'11 tall, and those dogs could knock me over so easily. Ouch!)
I would hope that others would extend the same courtesy. However, people are stupid. People are mean. People are crazy. You can't rely on them to be sane about anything, or to react appropriately--which would often be to not react at all.
I guess it's up to you.

The only reason that I can understand why someone would take their snake to a public area would be for shock value.

Keep it at home. People probably won't think you're "cool" for taking your snake out in public. All it'll do is reinforce the belief that snakes should be banned, because people are ignorant. They'll see a 5' long BP and think that it is going to reach 13' and be eating human babies in a weeks time. 99.9% of people don't know the difference. So to keep harm away from your snake, keep it at home.
