Basically, it's manipulation on behalf of the criminals to keep shit simple, and anyone who's intimidated into not snitching despite not being a criminal is usually a coward. Though most people in the hood will tell you that if you DO snitch you're a coward, those people have shit for brains. I've personally only called the cops once in my life, and it wasn't ON anyone it was cause i found this dude laying unconscious on someone's front lawn and I didn't want him to die, so I called 911 from a pay phone and left the scene. So don't think I'm just a snitch trynna justify his actions.
Snitching on people for doing a crime and calling the cops cause a homeless person was sleeping in someone's lawn are two different things.
Yeah, same here. Like when I was 13, my best friend would come to my house to get my parents to call the cops on his dad for beating his mom. My stepdad could easily just go over there and kick his ass, settle the beef privately but civil people don't do that, we make the cops work for their paychecks instead.

To criminals, snitching is the worst street law to break. Worse than being a sex offender. Cause some of these guys actually have intercourse with 15 year old chicks but it may not ruin him as badly as being a snitch. Whether you're in jail or out.
Even in the Mafia. Being a snitch (or a rat) calls for the ultimate punishment: Death.
I've never called police in my life. Not proud of it, not sad because of it. I don't feel nothing cause of it. It's just how I grew up. You don't call the police. You just don't tell on someone, especially if it wasn't your beef or business. It's something you just pick up and learn and see. Then it becomes apart of your personal everyday rule. To just not do that.
When you grow up in an environment when you're around people who lived this way, after many years, you automatically adapt to the idea and it maybe permanent. Like now i'm a productive citizen yet, in my mind, i just don't see myself calling police to tell on someone. Ever. I don't even see myself calling police for anything, period. I duno. It's just in me. That's it's just wrong to do so. It's how I was raised. To not like cops. And I know what I'm saying maybe just sad to most of you but that just how it is.
Like even if someone I know is in trouble, I couldn't call police, cause I'd feel low. I'd probably tell someone to call an ambulance, or something. Like I'd just tell some one else to do it. Not me, you know.
You mean Robert De Niro's character in Goodfellas. Bearing in mind he played a gangster. He's not actually one. I think a lot of people need to be reminded that De Niro and Pacino aren't actually in the Mafia. De Niro is as close to being in the Mafia as he is of being an Ex-C.I.A operative with a cat named Mr. Jinx. It's a film, they play FICTIONAL CHARACTERS. Say it with me; Fik-shun-al kah-rak-ters.
I seriously doubt Mr. De Niro believes in not-snitching himself.
As for all this: "I was raised to not like cops" crap, unbelievable. I don't know what's more unbelievable, though. You being raised to purposefully not like the police, by so-called "parents", or you being a "mature" human adult and still not believing that it's ok to call the police for any reason.
To think; People still wonder why we're f*cked up as a race.

No shit. He was portraying Jim Conway. The QUOTE was my point.
I think what people need to wake the fu*k up to, in regards to this delusional mafia existance, is that a huge majority og the people who would like to be a member of the mafia, would be sliced and diced by *REAL* members of the mafia. These thugs who wander around with Scarface posters, thinking they live the thug life, would be the first person in the family that got iced by the true mafia. Why? Because they live petty lives. Gangsters know the value of violence. They don't jump to teh conclusion that it should be the first course of action.

That's one of the most irresponsible, selfish, immature and pathetic things I've ever read on this forum.

We guess what. I'll say it again. "I was raised not to like cops." I was raised around my boys. They were who I hung around all the time. And then we hung around the older crews. No one ever told me cops are cool, never. All I was ever told was to avoid them, don't say anything and basically not even converse with them. And what reinforced the idea was witnessing some of the abuse policemen commit. Like I remember when I was young and dumb with friends playing spin the bottle with some chicks in an abandoned house, and someone snitched somehow and we were charged with "B&E night time" I remember the police officer placing me right next to my 2 friends and i smirked at one of my friends from the side like that "damn.." look and "WHAM!" Of the the officers punched me right on the corner of my lip without warning and asked me "What was so funny? You think this is funny?" He cut my mouth. And I just looked at the other cop and he looked like he kinda felt for me but looked away.
With my Hands Cuffed! WTF Is That! Here I am A Handcuffed Teenaged Kid getting punched in the face By A GROWN ****ING MAN. A ****IN" PIG.
Later at the station, while they were fingerprinting me, he asked if I had AIDS cause his knuckle was cut, from punching me and I don't have AIDS but I hesitated. I wanted to say yes so bad, just to have his btich-ass panic, but I feared for my life and thought that he would kill me right there in the cell if he knew i gave him AIDS. He already assaulted me. So I said "no."
Even since then, I've considered cops subhuman.
"They are against us" was constantly put into my head, indirectly for years. Into all of our heads. Some of my friends are worse with the cop thing. And as a young kid, with no pops no bro, you tend to look to your boys on the block for strength.
I don't like police officers, plain and simple. How to be exact. I care how ignorant anyone on here thinks I am. C.O.'s can eat a dcik too.
So don't talk to me about BS. It's how I was raised.
