And THIS (at least for me) is where we start entering snitching territory.
Jason set up the scenario.
Now they've found ya neighbors product in YOUR possesion.
They take him in, they take you in. You've been quiet until now. But the police want to start asking for info in an I scratch your back if you scratch mine. You're getting punished but the punishment can be reduced.
You give them what they want. Either on your neighbour or on another or even a BUNCH of dealers you're in contact with.
Now you're snitching. You've spent years going against the law but now you wanna work with it by giving up FELLOW "crooks" who have been doing the exact same shit you have all this time.
I see snitching as something that is motivated by greed or some sort of low life slime ball snake like vengence whether personal or strictly buisness.
It aint snitching.
If OP turns in the shooter purely out of concern for the shot, his fellow man and his neghbourhood as a whole. It isn't snitching. It's performing his civic duty at his own disgretion.
