Many leaks of course come from people who disagree with the policies of whatever administration happens to be in office. I believe there was a time, back when men were men and smoking outdoors wasn’t prohibited, when if you had a sensitive job that required clearances and you were privy to matters of National Security, you shut your gob regardless of whether you agreed with the policies or not.

It was called, lemme’ think, I believe it was called something like "I promised when I took this job to always protect classified information that I become privy to and that’s why I’m signing these papers saying that I solemnly swear to not disclose secrets."

I believe that was the title at the top of the form.

Now, it seems that people don’t give a crap. They disagree with something and their conscience cries out "… leak a secret document… it’ll make you feel better and you can live with yourself."

Just once, I’d like their conscience to yell out "… hey moron, remember that document you signed saying you wouldn’t disclose classified information? Remember that? Huh? This is your conscience talking… quit your whinging and get back to work."

From Fox News:

The latest 'gangsta' fashion craze on the streets of urban America has created quite a stir in cities such as Philadelphia, Baltimore and New York.

The hot-selling "no snitching" T-shirts carry warnings such as "don't talk to police" and "death before dishonor.”

In street slang, snitching is informing on others — being a tattletale, fink, rat, squealer or stoolie — and has always had negative connotations among mobsters and thieves, with severe punishment possible.

Police and law-abiding citizens, including crime victims and their families, are understandably upset over the shirts.

If witnesses and informants don't speak up, criminals don't get caught and more people could be robbed, hurt or killed.
