Do you really believe what you just wrote? You think honest people can't have friends? Or we haven't had to make tough ethical decisions. You must be very young? I have been in several very delicate spots before. I made one friend turn himself in and another had to stop doing what he was doing or I was turning him in. It is really quite simple. Sorry your ethics only kick in when it is not important.

Oh wait, you had a friend who committed some ethics violation, but then you let him off the hook with just "stopping what he was doing", w/o turning him in??? WTF? How is that any better than not turning someone in? A thief is a thief. Whooppee you talked them out if it. Anyone would try to talk them out of it. Curtains is pretty much saying he did the same. But that's not good enough for you? Only if they agree to STOP the behavior, or at least not tell you about it anymore, then all is hunky dory in the world?

I guess you get to decide what level of ethics violations get snitched on and what appropraite actions taken by the person in question warrant non-snitching? But no one else can make those kinds of decisions. Right. I guess we all just call bocablkr from now on when we want to know exactly what is and isn't the proper course of action when faced with a potential snitching situation. Maybe you should write a book.
