[ no fucking photos ]

A sign on a wall — even with a hashtag — is still just a sign on a wall.

A sign can’t put its arm out and stop you. It can’t grab the camera off you and delete the image that you just shot of me without my permission.

I can ask you politely not to take photos. I can yell in your face. I can swear at you:

No!

Fucking!

Photos!

But you’ll just do what you do the minute my back is turned.
