My sister called me a bad friend because I didn’t call my friends out for being an idiot? (Please read before answering)?

One of the girls I’ve been hanging with who I haven’t seen in a while told me that she did something that will scare her ex boyfriend. She told me she pretended to be a police officer to her exe’s job. I was like, “......Wow you did that?”
She said, “Yeah haha haha. Remember I told you that he has a record for shoplifting? Well I’m going to get him in trouble. Hahaha isn’t that smart.”
I couldn’t say anything. I was like, “He’s going to get it.”
My sister went ballistic when I told her. She said, “That is illegal and she’s being very stupid for doing that! What’s worse is that YOU as her friend didn’t call her out on that. Plus you know about it now and you can get into some serious trouble for that. You need to call her out. Report her.”
I said, “Well thought she was being an huge, boastful idiot. But I didn’t wanna start an argument and she’s my friend and -“
She cut me off and said, “See that’s it right there! You are letting your friend get away with that behavior. If you were a TRUE friend, you would have called her an huge idiot for her actions! True friends call you out on your bullshit. To put it bluntly, you not being a good friend right now. You’re not. You’re a terrible friend for not letting her know she’s wrong. You seem to support that and you need to call her out. You don’t speak up, that is your problem! Can’t be silent forever. Sometimes as being a true friend you gotta give them some tough love.”

See now I feel bad. Thanks a lot sis.

She's right, again. And your "friend" pretty much committed a crime by pretending to be a cop. It's basically a federal offense. Why would you let her get away with it? 😑

@xSiFiGamer2016x I...I wouldn’t say I let her get away with it. I can’t believe my sister called me a bad friend. I want even involved. I didn’t help her.

@AutismGirl18 You need to listen to some people like your sister, then. It'll make life more easier.

@xSiFiGamer2016x But how am I being a bad friend! I didn’t know what else to say!!!

@AutismGirl18 Well, you didn't know before, and I understand that, but you know now. You won't do it again, right?

@xSiFiGamer2016x No I won’t. My two friends said to stay away from her and they’ve warned me and she isn’t a true friend, they are. They just don’t know her! My guy friend said that real friends call you out on your bs and it isn’t mean to do so.

@AutismGirl18 Good. Just pay attention to the people that are your REAL friends and family. You deserve better than a fake friend.
