views on talking to the police
I was interested from another topic that mentioned this - what the views were of a broad collection of mostly American people - in regards to the moral acceptability of talking to the police.
Say for a scenario - something quite permissable. You witness a guy you know from around breaking into one of your neighbours houses to rob them. The neighbour isnt in... so no violence - just a crime against property.
Then two police knock on your door the next to day to say there has been a robbery... 20K stolen... what would you do? Give information to the police right out? Give an anon tip off to the police? Or say nothing to them?
