    what do you think?

    is "telling" or calling in the police or whatever always a low down, shitty thing to do, even if you're on the ass end of an ass kicking, or are there situations in which you'd find it appropriate to call up the law?

    i would do it only in an extremely bad situation...i'd be more likely to just cut my losses or in certain situations even take the law into my own hands, but i'll almost never call the cops for anything unless i like get in a car wreck or something...but then thats not the same as snitchin

    Everyone hates a narc :mad:

    But If you're in the know it must be hard to resist those hefty rewards offered by the authorities for information leading to the capture and apprehension of a suspect :(

    Hmm I dunno

    I mean if I saw a bunch of "gangstas" all beating the shit out of someone on the street I'd probably call the police and an ambulance. Theres no honour in that kind of shit, they should be taken to the basement of the police station and their brains splattered across the wall.

    If it was a 1 on 1 fight however I'd probably ignore it, I dont know the situation

    If someone attacked me, then either I'd get myself beaten to the state where I can no longer get up or if I won I'd make sure to punish them so I'd stomp their throat until theyre coughing up blood, or break their fingers or something, so getting the police involved in that situation probably wouldnt be the wisest, I wouldnt want to get charged with GBH or anything


    and for situations like if a friend of mine was raped and I knew who did it, if I went to kill him then suddenly I'm the criminal, so I would most likely call the police

    Yes, snitches should get stitches if they are wounded badly enough to need them. :) Just because they're tattletales doesn't mean they aren't entitled to the same health care and treatments as the rest of us!

    now, i won't put words in your mouth. i won't project anything here.

    but i WILL claim that this same -type- of arguement would be used by many people.

    i will also say that not necessarily in all cases, but in many cases, it has to do with certain prejudices people have.

    because someone might say "they look like gangsters" they will assume they have no good reason to beat the shit out of someone.

    but as you know, lots and lots of bad shit happens out there, and even "unsavory" individuals usually have some level of honor, or sense of responsibility.

    i am hard pressed to be violent, but if i knew full well that someone, for example, raped a lover or family member, i would not call the police and risk them getting off scott free on lack of evidence (rape is a really hard thing to prove)

    rather, i would take the law into my own hands. and while i'm hard pressed to inflict pain on another person, if i was pushed to it, such as this scenario, either they would be lucky to crawl away in agony or they would get the better of me and i'd die trying. no cops needed here, because the laws won't necessarily see justice. i am all for giving everyone the benefit of the doubt and a fair shake...but if i know damn well what happened, and i also know a court of law will not necessarily be effective....well, god help me if i dont feel responsible for taking care of business myself.

    so, my point is that many, if not most people, are like this. and even the folks many people look down on because they are seen as unsavory in one fashion or another usually have at least some variety of ethics, and likely you'll share at least some of them.

    if i see a fight on the street, so long as its not open fire where bystanders are at serious risk, i'm not calling the cops. because i know what i'd do in certain situations, and in certain situations i'd take care of shit regardless of where i was or what may happen to me.....

    some people just deserve it, and while i hate the theory of vigilante justice, i can't deny its occasional usefulness.....

    i don't know. this probably sounds stupid and immature, and maybe it is. but i won't call the cops for shit like this when i don't know what the situation is.

    maybe if a next door neighbor was beating the shit out of his wife or something. but not for some dude getting a beating out on the street.

    well in some cases it seems like the right thing to do, even if it's pointless. like a few years ago my roomie witnessed a couple people breaking into our friend's car, so he called the police. i see nothing wrong with this, as it would be unsafe for him to intervene himself, and yet they shouldn't be allowed to just steal the car. of course, the police didn't bother coming out, so in hindsight he probably should have just shot the fuckers, but what can ya do.

    and then there's things like murder, that are just too much to handle without the help of the authorities. but for a fight on the streets, i'm not calling over something like that.

    Personally I could only ever sort my problems out myself.
    Getting the pigs do things would be like dressing up in womens clothes .. if u aint a woman.

    However , I'd say most of the biggest , highest profile criminals are also the biggest grasses.

    Most anti-grasses dont treat "anonymous grassing" the same as normal grassing tho'
    Anyway..

    I don''t see why I shouldn't call cops over something illegal, negatively affecting me.

    No paedos should be chopped into little pieces.

    What I mean is , if someone punched me / a friend in the face ,I'd punch em 6 times , not run to the cops.

    Or when I was a kid , if someone nicked something from a huge morally dubious company and was selling it bit by bit , I wouldnt shop him to the cops.

    Paedos , bent cops , people who rip off normal people are scum and should be locked up by the law.And have their limbs rearranged by people who'd feel nauseated using cops , IMO

    Yeah but u arent a *guy* who's come from a culture of "sorting his own problems out where possible".

    I'm not condemning people who use the cops.Ofcourse there's nothing wrong with u ( and others)using them.
    Just say , I feel ill in the presence of most cops.

    Plus my point was also on about say young guys who dabble im drugs etc , not fitting their friends up etc.

    Yea, it is a culture thing, possibly a gender thing, a bad experience thing, and an ego thing I believe.

    yeah, i personally think that snitching is not calling the cops if something illegal is happening negatively to you. snitching is telling the police information about a friend or someone that you personally know about an unrelated crime to get a lower sentence yourself. i have a friend who is a "confidential informant" for the police, who is also a drug dealer. now THAT is bullshit. the dude sells the person drugs, then calls his police friends to have them come arrest that person. needless to say, i get my green elsewhere now.
