Your post:

.gov can 'say' or 'decree' all they want, but ultimately .gov is irrelevant they have no factual knowledge that a crime is being or has been committed...unless somebody snitches.

If government has no factual knowledge that a crime is being committed or has been committed unless somebody snitches, then it would naturally follow that

Snitches are the only way that drug use ever gets spotted or reported?

You didn't say "unless somebody snitches or various other things happen", you said "unless somebody snitches." You mentioned no other alternative. You only mentioned snitches. It was a clear and simple declaration. If you meant something else, you should have written something else, instead of saying something stupid and chalking criticism up to lack of reading comprehension.
