I’m talking about like tax fraud and stuff.
Do you be the snitch, or do you be like Skyler White and join them?
Depends on the details. If their crime hurt someone innocent (or had a high likelihood to) and it was intentional, yes.
If I’m likely to go down with them if they get caught, yes.
Otherwise, I ain’t no snitch and even if I were I don’t know anything about nothing.
Yeah, I would’ve done so too, because that dude was bankrupting people just to make himself a bit richer. I hope he rots in hell.
See, there’s people here saying never for something nonviolent. That’s kinda silly, non-violent crimes can be just as bad. They’re just less visually compelling.
I have higher standards than most people I guess. My rule is simple: don’t be stupid, don’t be a dick. If you can’t clear those two pretty low bars then you are cordially invited to get bent.
They often don’t consider child sexual abuse where the offense isn’t violent but the child will be permanently harmed unless they get help.
What offense?
exactly
Ya, hopefully OP is in a safe place if need be.
I ain’t seen nuttin’, officer.
What’s the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal?
This is democracy manifest!
Ah I see you know your judo well!
Get your hand off my peNIS!
And you sir, are you waiting to receive my limp penis?
This is nepotism plain and simple.
Everyone looks at trump employing his friends and family and complains, but put in the same place you’d all do the same.
Well that’s a left-field response. He’s not just employing friends and family, he’s also employing loyalists who’ve garnered favors from him (because of their loyalty). And it isn’t just a business, it’s a government
I would employ my family if I could, but I sure as hell wouldn’t choose them over qualified professionals, whether it’s a business or a government. I’m sure as shit not gonna have someone with no financial expertise running my accounting, no matter how much I love them.
Don’t make everything political and start stirring shit, we have enough of that right now
Lol. Do you know the word hypocrisy?
Tax fraud costs everyone. https://www.statista.com/chart/8668/the-global-cost-of-tax-avoidance/
What are you on about? Anything but OP’s question I guess, just going on tangents instead?
The article you linked is about corporate tax avoidance btw, which yes, absolutely effects everyone. Anything else you’d like to add to your ramblings?
You are correct that it’s corporate tax fraud in the link I provided. Here’s something about the cost of individual tax fraud.
Please, take your pick.

OP:
I’m talking about like tax fraud and stuff.
No and no.
Ponzi scheme or something like that? Yes, I would snitch. Bank robbery, please do not tell me. Cheating on taxes? I will judge you but no, not turn you in, if you get caught you get caught.
Snitch on a loved one? Never. If I thought it was ethically or morally wrong, I would tell them what I think about it. Good people also make mistakes, and good people can change.
What if your family member deliberately molested a young child, would you not want to get that child help? Even if you refused to tell the police, you would need to tell someone related to that child and 99/100 cases would result in them reporting the abuse to police.
How is that a non-violent offence?
10% cut.
Every family and relationship is different, I guess. I feel like active extortion would make the dinners a bit weird for me.
Thanks for the spoiler.
Styler was complicit in a murderous/ deadly underground drug ring, where families are shredded apart and people died.
Someone fibbing on their 1099 isn’t anywhere near the same
Snitches get stitches. Unless someone is hurting people, I ain’t seen nothing.
If it harmed an innocent, probably. If it harmed a government, corporation, or detestable person, no.
Rarely is it only one or the other and not both or even several together, though…
It’s a case by case judgment call.
Depends, if the crime severely harms other people
Honestly, if it’s truly a “loved one” I probably wouldn’t even report them for murder. Why? I think that when someone is close enough to you we simply apply different standards to them. Kind of like rescuing your own child from a burning building rather that rescuing two strangers.
I detest people that make serious holes in their morals for close ones. It’s repulsive.
There’s a big difference between committing a crime and reporting someone for a crime they’ve already committed. To me, it’s pretty clear why murder is wrong - but the virtue of reporting a loved one for murder isn’t nearly as obvious.
I feel like this is the kind of question that needs a whole lot of details before it is answerable.
Tax fraud? Absolutely fuck not.
Drunk driving? Probably I would give them a single “Hey next time I find out you’re doing that I am calling the cops on you” warning shot.
Stealing from their company? Depends, what does the company do and who owns it? Again almost certainly not.
And so on.
No wonder nepotism exists. https://www.statista.com/chart/8668/the-global-cost-of-tax-avoidance/
Personally I make a distinction in tax fraud. If it’s an individual? Meh, whatever. If it’s a company that has a significantly larger impact.
Report them for tax fraud? Almost definitely not. I would be getting a lawyer and accountant to insulate myself and my financials from them.
