Depends, but I'd try and find a way to profit from it.
Isn't that what we pay our vaunted intelligence agencies to do?
1) yes
2) safe is a subjective word
3) you deserve whatever happens then
4) die

Well.. highly depends i don´t think i would bother unless there was something major there´s better things to die for.
It's better to live one day as a lion than a hundred years as a sheep.

Rule of law is paramount. Otherwise some kind of Nazi will win (thats what WW2 was about)
This depends greatly on the criminal acts going on. Like, if I knew of a crooked Doctor who gives false testimony in auto-injury cases, or defrauds insurance companies, then yes. If it was a large group of murdering thugs whose business somehow got tied up with mine, then I would after my family was safe.
Yep, I would.
If it's like a kiddie porn ring you'd better believe it.

I was doing some work in Grenoble an one of the people who worked there pointed to a great big row of Italian restaurants and told me they were all well known to be mafia fronts to launder money through, but nobody really gave enough of a shit to do anything about it.

As usmarine said, safe is a relative word. If I had information that would help take down a criminal organization, it would be morally wrong not to say something. I trust God to protect my family when I've done the right thing and after that hopefully the criminal justice system would do its job.

I find that very honorable if those words are true, But God has looked another way many times before lets hope that won´t be the case if things turn out for the worse.Stingray24 wrote:

The real organised criminals are pure outlaws.. near intouchable in todays society there´s no system that´s gonna work sure if there would be some ghetto gang no problem here chances are slim they will do anything. Bigger organisations? sure they will treat you if needed.
Would not put my family at risk.
Would depend on how bad the organisation is and what would happen to me.

Like ig said, it depends. If it was kiddie porn ring (like KMarion said) then yes, I would tell. If it was just some guys growing pot or something, then no.
I agree with Home on this one.
Well, we've all heard of the CIA.
"you know life is what we make it, and a chance is like a picture, it'd be nice if you just take it"
If I am protected against backlash then yes
