You are not a giant pussy.
I am 100% torn on my feelings about snitching.
This might be extreme but I feel if you don't snitch, you are basically aiding and abetting a criminal and helping to enable them to commit more crimes.
That being said, you (Jeeper) claim (or at least imply) someone is a "giant pussy" if they don't snitch.
Let me ask you this. If someone has seen a person who was killed because they were a "snitch" and forgetting about themself after that, they wouldn't want a loved one to be "retaliation"/"retribution"/"vengeance" for their being a snitch - are they still a "giant pussy" to you?
Well, I just might prefer to be a "giant pussy" who stays alive (and doesn't possibly put my family member/s well being in jeopardy) as opposed to some tough guy who is naive and goes ahead and snitches - and gets himself or someone he cares about killed because of it.
It isn't complicated for me.
You find your moral compass and principles that are most important to you. And you STAND on those, regardless and without fear.
I guess some folks are built for it and some aren't.

Solid response. I admire you. Seriously.
I fully admit that I am very conflicted. I have "narced"/"snitched" in the past but these days I am very reluctant for fear of retribution. Not so much for my sake, for my family member's sake.
If I knew my "snitching" was 100% anonymous, then I would probably do it without hesitation but I know pretty much nothing is "anonymous" anymore and how quickly a person's identity and background info can be found.

Sorry, I can't help myself.
This is one of the people Trump called a patriot...said “we love you, you are very special.” Trump is now responsible for his death. And no, he can’t pardon himself.
This is Kevin Greyson of Athens, Alabama. Mr. Greyson died in the capital building during his attempt to overthrow our democracy. How did he die? He was attempting to steal a picture of Tip O’Neal when his own stun-gun fired in his front pocket. While electrocuting his own testicles, Mr. Greyson also suffered a heart attack and died on the scene. Under the feet of his other rabid insurrectionist traitors, with Tip O’Neal looming still oh-so-large over him. I sure hope Trump was worth it to him.

Just found out this is a bogus claim. He died on the Capitol lawn of a hear attack while having a conversation with his wife.
All depends on who you choose to believe.
How's this? I'm not a smart guy but I am wise enough to choose not to believe anybody who was there (including law enforcement) and who was associated with anyone there - and who defends the asshole in any way.
I don't believe he tased himself in/on his testicles but I would be a fool to believe anything his wife said/says too. She married and stayed married to the jag-off. Speaks volumes about her as a person.

It was always said he died of a heart attack. Precipitating event likely
