Yup. Even
hinting at ratting on someone (in a public forum or in private conversation -
whether you intended that to be how it is interpreted or not) is a very risky path to go down.
The consumer doesn't have the
power of incrimination unless they want to open themselves up to all manner of police scrutiny or violent retribution.
Even "nice" dealers or "friends" source their product from someone/somewhere possibly not-so-nice. I've certainly seen this.
Especially if they've been reliably in the game for long periods.
IMO any ability to incriminate a dealer is outweighed by "street justice" which happens to move a LOT faster than the legal system.
Whatever the OP "really" meant - the only etiquette is
keep your mouth shut - to friends, family, LE or anyone who asks.
(ie "where'd you get thia stuff?" "a friend, acquaintance, dude at a party, etc)
Dealers only owe you what you're paying for - and even then;
caveat emptor: buyer beware!
'Trust' on the black market is a foolish gamble.
Friends and respected clients get paranoid - it's the rule of the game.
Edit -
I am considering reporting this thread. Does anyone else have any thoughts. This sight does not need snitches and it is not welcome IMO. I am rather tired atm so I dunno.
I think this thread serves the purpose of educating potential snitches and to demonstrate how uncool and extremely dangerous it is. Just my opinion.
