Not cool, dude. All that "snitches get stitches" jazz is such bullshit.
Is it?
If I follow a drunk slowly until he gets off the highway so that nobody will run into him- then wish him the best and carry on with my merry way- he and his family are better off for it.
Law enforcement in the U.S. is like a box jellyfish. It's a damn shitty thing to provoke contact for somebody unless there's an immediate reason to do so. Most drunks are no worse than the phone-addled. You're putting a man's job, health, and finances at risk by snitching on him.
Do that if you want- I'm told that it's a free country. But I won't do it unless somebody's life is truly and immediately at risk. Vast majority of the time that's not the case.
