An urban policy that has become maddness. It has gone from a policy of not betraying and turning in one's friends to the over the top policy of not talking to the police about anything. Even if the person who commited the crime has done terrible things, and he is not even from your neighborhood. A policy that has led to the ceasing of solving of inner-city crimes.
Person fed up with constant violence: "He murdered three people! He's not even from our hood!"
Person who has grown too used to it: You know the policy, Stop Snitchin."

snitching but not exactly snitching completly.
giving some clues or hints but not fully snitching
for instance rapper camron said.
"he threw up the roc before he shot me"
(hes talking about the incident where he got shot)
he didnt exactly say WHO shot him
but he did say, that whoever shot him is affiliated with jay z and or rocafella records.
jay z and nas called camrons statement "dry snitching"

What used to be a criminal oath of solemn silence corrupted to being an act of police non compliance.
The idea of stop snitching is to ensure fellow criminals do not rat each other out when arrested. So if a drug dealer sells drugs, both the buyer and seller are the sole liability of the crime. They will not drag the other criminal in for a softer sentence or for protection from retribution and is fully responsible for his actions.
This code should not and does not affect innocents and should confess to allow the criminal to be arrested quicker. Even if they are of the same race. So being mugged by another guy in your neighbourhood would mean you can confess to who was responsible for it.
Very popular among rap artists who have promoted this message as a means to fight the law enforcement who have in the past worsened relations on both sides
What Stop Snitchin really meant back then:
Joe bought a piece off some gunrunner where he used it to kill a friend of another gang member, Joe was busted and was asked about who bought him the gun. As part
What Stop Snitchin means now:
Despite being attacked by a well known mugger, Jim refused to bring the criminal to justice and claims it would be snitching.

Due to a general trust and liking of the police by african americans and hispanics in urban areas, police are seeing a huge increase in people calling to report crimes, providing all available information. this phenomenom is probably a result of years of hard work by the police in these communities gaining trust and showing that they will be fair and follow protocol in all situations.

dry snitching is the act of snitching by an asshole who is not the victim of a crime or an accomplice in crime looking to reduce a jail sentence or a criminal unrelated to the snitchee looking to trade up information fro immunity to prosecution .
a good example is someone who witnesses someone driving over the speed limit on the highway and reports the liscence plate to police . excerpt from hbo's the wire ; "is he locked up trying to shave some years ? " " nah , he just dry snitchin yo "
