What's The Difference ?

I was in the neighborhood of some of my rentals when I heard that the corner store had been robbed and no one could be found who could identify the robbers.

The funny thing was - the store sold those "Stop Snitchin'" t-shirts.

But can we have it both ways?

Can we favour a "Stop Snitchin'" stance while we are opposed to police officers who live by the "Blue Wall of Silence"?
