Cameras on Camron
60 minutes covered the topic of snitching in the hood.
It featured Camron a substandard rapper with a strong following and a history of drug dealing, being shot and keeping his mouth shut.
He proudly admitted that he wouldn't even call the police if he live next door to a serial killer. He would just move.Cam'ron also stated that there is never a good reason to share information with the police.
What makes this person a man besides his physical make up? My definition of a man includes his role in any community. A man should be an assest to his community and encourage growth, prosperity and sound ehtics.Not run the other way when he see's wrong being done. Certainly a man shouldn't preach to his own people that they should turn the other way while their neighborhoods deteriorate before their eyes.
Cam'ron admitted that to keep his record sales up he had to peddle the idea that snitching is the most disgraceful act a person could commit.
I know there is a long history of mistrust between black communities and police officers, but both sides need to work together.
