Bad enough that PARF allows a free for all on personal attacks. Can we avoid this here?

It is basically just what you would think is going on a kids dorm room, toss a bit of theft of personal items into the mix, and im sure you can see the picture more clearly .
Its jJ federal Job Corps, so they are strict . He had to pass a drug test to get in, and they can random at will if there is any suspicion . He says they told him if it happens in the room, they hold all roomates accountable. Im not sure it would apply if he still passed a drug test or was not present at the time, but he says , they have been blazing up enough nightly to make the great Jimmy Cliff proud .

I agree. I somehow get the feeling Fred’s son isn’t telling him the whole story. Is there a possibility that his son either did something he didn’t want to admit to or just doesn’t want to stay in school. If the facts are as stated, why wasn’t the perpetrator expelled? And how did everyone find out that Fred‘s son was the snitch?

So , this has led to him now being threatened by the kid and some of his buddies, and now , he is kind of the target of the floor of the dorms . He says , people are spreading rumours about him , and harrassing him . He told me he is scared .
I tried to have a heart to heart with him, and mentioned that my policy has always been that no good comes from snitching about anything.
Unless you have taken some sort of oath , hold a public office , or some ones well being is at stake, its not your place, mind you bidness , keep your head down, shoulders up , and stay focused on your own path . Everything else is just background noise .
Whats your policy? if you see something , do you say something, or keep a blind eye and move on ?
