[fantasy: Dr. Information talks to camera while walking through a crowd gathered by a dead man:]

Old Timey Cop: Who did this?
Man: He did.
Dr. Information: Thousands of criminals were sent to jail by law-abiding citizens.

Dr. Information: It wasn't until those people got out of jail and started killing the people that sent them there that snitching got a bad rep.
Old Timey Cop: Who did this?
