Knowing about a crime and not saying anything makes one just as guilty as the one (or ones) who committed the crime. Fear plagues the hearts of many, afraid of becoming another victim or statistic of the streets. All we've heard is STOP SNITCHING! My question is what if the crime was committed against a friend or loved one such as your son, daughter, father, mother or grandmother? Wouldn't you want someone to come forth and say what they saw or what they've heard? Of course you would!
Right now, I want to commend a group of citizens who call themselves the Detroit 300 for standing and coming against the street rule of NO SNITCHING! This group was formed after a 90 year old woman was raped and robbed on the city's west side at the hands of three teenagers; I don't know what's in the water, but it takes a sick motherfucker to even think of raping a senior citizen.
The Detroit 300 are credited by the police for the tips that lead to the arrests made in this despicable case.
I hope this video will encourage at least some of you to go against the no snitching rule if you see something happening.Just think if it were you, you'd want someone to come forth with what they knew.
