Yessir! You go! Those Ho-Hos and Slim Jims that fells took really showed the "Man" (I have no idea what he took, those products were for sarcastic value)

@ Yessir Well, in judging the actions of this individual, it helps to have a relatively homogenous moral code. This is usually important to most people, except of course the lone man using the scant details of this story to support a faux-sophic fling into conspiracy theory. This man's "friend" did not report him, but convinced him to turn himself in. The man would have been caught eventually. No snitching done here.

You all are thinking alike. That is what the goal is. from state sponsored schools to state funded and tainted college programs, through tax paying adulthood, until death. By the state, for the state, of the state. Puppets

I'd say this man has a true friend who cares. Lucky for him! Good for the friend and kudos for the guy for turning himself in. Now THAT'S acting like a real man.

@ Yessir! Yeah sure, a convenience store robbery is such a well-made and appropriate descision that anyone trying to turn this man away from his journey is nothing but absolute filth.

It is not about being a snitch. It is about being responsible. He made his choice now he has to face the consequences of his actions. Don't blame his friend.

That is the new way of thinking and doing! Being a 'friend' means different that it used to. Snitch culture! Water is thicker than blood!
