Snitches get stitches

[cawacko]

I understand the argument of the #blm crowd that police are gov't employees so it's different when they shoot someone vs. another private citizen. I understand the argument that they feel police get off for the same actions private citizens go to jail for. But to stay consistent the culture of no snitching has to change. If the goal is justice not testifying against killers isn't helping the community. (yes I know it's easier said then done when not living in the neighborhood but nonetheless...)

Well that's one hell of a tough predicament to be in Wacko. I remember when I was attending Wright State and lived in the Hillbilly part of Dayton and it was a situation where you didn't trust the cops, who beat heads and asked questions later, and if you snitched the local gang bangers/Harley fags would kill you. So you kept your mouth shut and worked as hard as you could to get away from them which was the only practical solution. Hell I ended up moving to the west side (black part of town) cause it was safer than the Huffman/U.D. area with all it's hilljacks and briarhoppers. Most of whom belonged to street gangs or motorcycles gangs. That west Philadelphia street area wasn't exactly the greatest neighborhood either but it was safer than Hillbillyville and most of the women had their own teeth still.

That's why I made that last comment. It's easy for me to say from my nice safe neighborhood where I don't face the same threats. But ultimately the no snitching culture has to change if the goal is bringing to justice killers in the neighborhood.

the no snitching theme gets alot of help in inner cities because city/state governments make it near impossible for people to protect themselves and their communities.
