Woman branded as 'snitch'

    Some lovely examples of humanity branded a woman on her left cheek with the word snitch after she spoke to police about them in a domestic violence case, resulting in a child being removed from the home.

    EDIT: Jesus people, it was a bad joke. ::) ::) ::) ::)

    I wonder how I knew drugs were involved before I read the story?

    "Maledom?" More like "methdom." One of those who branded her is a woman.

    Where does one purchase a brand that says 'snitch'?

    Brand 'R Us? The Brand Depot? Brand-Mart? Brands and Noble?

    Are there name-brand brands, or are they mostly generic?

    Maybe at Brands for Less.

    If I hated men, I'd become a lesbian.

    I know that's a different world and because I didn't grow up in that environment I'll never get it, but I really don't understand this whole "don't snitch" bullshit.
    Somebody commits a crime. They get caught. They take their medicine. If you can't take the consequences, don't break the law.
    The mentality in some places seems to be "Well, it's too bad that little kid got killed by a stray bullet during a gang war, but going to the police isn't going to solve anything."
    The hell it won't.
    Here's a thought: If you're not doing something you shouldn't be doing, maybe nobody would have any reason to snitch.

    Aren't misogynists nearly always straight?

    And "examples of maledom" is pretty straight-forward to me...

    Perhaps we should just line up now for your castration purposes.

    Man, if somebody were to throw up a generality like that about women, you'd be screaming bloody murder.

    "Stop Snitching" is not a movement of minority empowerment and unity. It's a bullying tactic by gangs. Nothing to do with the story or the debate over SC's words. Just sayin'
