It is. Unless of course, you didn't know it wasn't true and you call again in 3 days to let them know your realised you were wrong.
Actually it very explicitly is not. Per there website:
“Is Crime Stoppers part of the police? We are NOT the police.
All local Crime Stoppers programs act as the "intermediary" between the Tipster and the investigative/police agency. They are not-for-profits and mostly registered charities that are operated by volunteers from the community. The programs rely on donations from sponsors, community partners and the public through individual fundraisers, to support their efforts.”
It is not a crime to lie in most circumstances, that includes to the police in some cases. In most jurisdictions you cannot lie about your name and address and while under oath. Everytime else is free game.
Dude looks pretty young to have a healthcare beef. But what do I know about anyone’s life.
I’ve wanted to kill these motherfuckers since I was 23 and they killed my father. I’m 35 right now and just waiting for the right opportunity to do so.
They probably killed someone close to him.
I have an alibi, I was at work. But I was cheering the second I heard the news. I owe the killer a beer.
Maybe edit the end of that first paragraph?
For what, committing a thought crime?
We are on Lemmy.world after all. And you're even signed up there.
Aww, the libs who run lemmy world can’t handle murderous thoughts? How about an insurance company administratively murdering people for profit? That’s fine right?
Also, I was new to the federated system so I joined the biggest server. They can ban me and I’ll go elsewhere. I’m not censoring myself.
That's the spirit! It would probably only be a comment removal or maybe temp ban but something to think about.
Thanks but I’m gonna keep my thought crimes up with pride. Let them ban me.

Why is police wasting their time on a nothing burger....
Oh, yeah, we usually warm up the house with a hoody fire. You start with some cardboard and then you just add the hoody when it's burning nice and hot. Hard drives, laptops, etc, finger tips. Oh that black stick flute? Its a Mayan death whistle! You blow here and you pull this little lever right here is you're in a hurry and really need to go...you know what I mean?
