Anti-choice terrorism? Pfffft. No such thing. 

FUCKING BOOM. I LITERALLY CLAPPED AT THE END OF THIS POST. THIS IS A GOOD FUCKING POST.

Anyone who thinks this isn’t terrorism needs to seriously examine their definition of terrorism.  And, I would argue, the protesters who stand outside harassing patients as they go in may fit the bill as well.

Yay censorship! If there are some images I dont like instead of not looking I set out to destroy them. Muahahaha

You’re missing the entire point of why we’re reporting this, you asshat.

We’re not doing it because, “zomg! I dont like pictures of butts!”

We’re reporting it because the entire premise of creepshots is to take pics of people’s body parts without the knowledge or consent of the individual. It’s not about censorship, asshole, it’s about consent.

Is there an easy way to report?  Or do you have to send the url in a general email to tumblr or what?
