78. I think we can all do without the snotty attitude
For someone who says they prefer not to fight with their fellow DUers, you sure as hell come one like gangbusters, don't you?

When you call someone a "snitch" and a " government informant" instead of of using other terms, don't you think it sends the message that you disapprove, as those words are most often used as derogatory? That is why myself and others were questioning you in regards to your views.

I asked you what the word snitch meant TO YOU. Not what the dictionary says it means. Your complaining that the discussion is being taken farther away from the intent of the original post by other people, is unfair, considering that it was your posts that brought up the unrelated points that have been discussed. Since you have obvious issues around this subject and for some reason, seem to think I'm some anti-crime crusader out to spy and inform on her neighbors, then I agree that this dialogue is fruitless.

So, in the spirit of your post to me: Go ahead, sit back, don't be a "snitch". Allow others to swindle and scam the elderly and vulnerable, while you do nothing about it. After all, that's what the Bush junta would like you to do, isn't it? Sit back and let them scam the country while nobody "snitches" on them?

Does that paragraph sound wrong and unfair to you? Do you think that I am judging you wrongly? Well, that's just about how your posts to me have read.
