@moto-waki: unfortunately, “snitch” also has pejorative connotations (which I think you are deliberately ducking) that render it more useful to the criminal element of society. The word is useless to the average good citizen.

of all the words that mean the same as snitch, snitch is still the best. it does double-duty as a verb & a noun, it rolls off the tongue, & it’s colorful & efficient. i think those of you that are hypersensitive to this word may have watched one too many episodes of OZ.

Agreed. Frankly I can’t believe any of the “anti-snitching” commenters see any irony in using a term most closely associated with gang activity and “snitches get stitches” campaigns (read as, “don’t snitch or we’ll hunt you down and kill you”) by certain groups to keep locals terrorized.

THE BURNING BUS WAS NOT IN THE MISSION. i only speak for what i saw while i was in the thick of it, IN THE MISSION.

if you had read the thread you’d know that as a resident of the mission, i wasn’t bothered by the celebration. the chaos of the event has been hyped to a degree. things could have been so much worse as far as property damage & people hurt than what has been reported. i think the city did a pretty good job at managing the situation & cleaning it up afterward. & i’m not the biggest fan of authority, either.

i never condoned,endorsed, or participated in any destruction. but i am vocal with my reluctance to conspire with the cops when they plant a link on the neighborhood blog that i read. if you want to be a stooge for the pigs, go for it. just don’t be blind.

You are the idiot I am talking about.

Burning a bus, trashing businesses and cars…it is called vandalism. I was there and people were acting like fools.

No shit you didn’t win a world series. That takes dedication.

Just because there were some families about does not mean people were not vandalizing everything. Moto-waki, not sure – wack fits the bill.

Obviously Moderniste, you know nothing beyond your own own little click. Thugging is here is strong. Don’t generalize.

What the hell are you talking about? Yes SF is beautiful and pretty chill, but there are plenty of thugs, and a big enough ghetto element in SF, particularly in areas like the Mission…who do you think was responsible for a bunch of the 70+ fires that were set that night, and who do you think the multiple people were who got arrested for weapons violations that night? Yuppies?

Alrighty. Now I’m giggling that you thought my avatar was “pretentious”, since it’s obviously SO SERIOUS in intention.

@moto-waki, life must be very very po-faced for ya, son.
