I don’t get those “Stop Snitching” T-Shirts. What the fuck are you trying to say when you put one of those ridiculous things on your back?
Do you support murder, rape, child molestation etc?
I bet if something happened to someone you loved you’d want people to contact the police with information right?
So fuck off and quit being a hypocrite, your not fooling anyone.

can stupidity be outlawed?
A rat is someone who snitches…..meaning they have done this to save their own ass…..not someone who reports a child molester or murderer!!!!!!
BTW…I HATE RATS AND THOSE STUPID T-SHIRTS!
I haven’t seen these shirts yet…though I must admit I try to avoid anywhere there are “trendy” people congregating, I just can’t stand people who try so hard. Either way…do we really know what the slogan is intended for or who it’s specifically directed at? I am curious now that you have mentioned these shirts…oh and A, they cannot outlaw stupidity because politicians make the laws and well…you can see where I am going with this one, politicians would be worried they would outlaw their offspring…
heh, for we agree? weird:P
it’s bullshit big city rapper/gansta culture….this ain’t Compton….ps. they don’t look tuff….they’s punkass
“it’s bullshit big city rapper/gansta culture….this ain’t Compton….ps. they don’t look tuff….they’s punkass”should have added American culture…laughable
“it’s bullshit big city rapper/gansta culture….this ain’t Compton….ps. they don’t look tuff….they’s punkass…should have added American culture…”While I agree with the majority of your comment, it’s quite narrowminded of you to classify this fad as “American culture”. I’m an American citizen living in Nova Scotia & trust me, it was 1,000 times worse when I was living in the States. I’m from Southern Maryland which is about 45 minutes outside of Washington DC. So, when I see these young white kids wearing the “Stop Snitching” shirts & their bandana’s covering their faces while standing outside of Applebee’s on a Friday night in Clayton Park, I can’t help but laugh & wish that I could drop them off at the mall in my hometown & see if they could survive wearing their “colors”. I doubt it. As far as it being “American culture”, I cannot agree, it’s ignorant street cultre. The whole “Stop Snitching” campaign began & is still all about intimidating witnesses & people who actually might come forward with knowledge of a crime. Even rapper Cam’ron said in a “60 Minute” interview that if he knew a serial killer was living next door, he would simply move… but NOT notify law enforcement. “American culture” it is not…
I disagree. I think that this is very much an American cultural thing- a meme/or a virus if you will that is spread by rap music….a product of big city USA….
I haven’t seen these shirts either but it sounds like something an emo kid would wear as well. Maybe we should just tell all these gangbanging, hoodrat, gangsters this and watch how fast those t’s disappear.
Stop being Punk-Ass Bitchesand You Won’t have to Worry about Snitches.That should be on a T-Shirt
Really…that’s what the shirts are for!?!?!? OMFG just when you thought suburban teenage middle class (white, black, brown, green or whatever color they happen to be) “Gangsters” weren’t going to get any more pathetic.Hey Jeff, I have got the car…show me where to drop off these hardcore toughies so we can show them what a real hood looks like. Hey maybe if we subjected each one of them to a real introduction beat-down, maybe they wouldn’t want to be a poser so much?
I guess you people weren’t paying attention when that 18 year old girl was beaten to a pulp and had cigarettes extinguished on her face. Even at the junior high level, in our less affluent communities, the ‘I don’t snitch’ attitude is a given, or suffer the consequences.
