Supposing you knew without a shadow of a doubt that a member of your own family or indeed a partner had committed a serious offence, would you report them to the police? Inspired by a story I've just read where a woman reported her fiancé for sexual crimes.
That's a tough one. Way to many circumstances to consider. I'd love to stand here with my morals and righteousness and say I would uphold the law no mater what, but that would be lie if it meant I were to lose someone I love and nothing good would come of it. If that person I loved turned out to be some physico than that's another story.
Murder, Rape, Harassment yes, being drunk and hitting a fence well maybe, running nude in public sport event no.
something relatively benign... say... slinging a little pot here and there... no. coke dealer? in a heart beat.
Relative by blood, it would depend on what it was. If it was something that I could see myself doing, or have done, then no. If it was something that I couldn't ever see myself doing, then yes. Relatives by marriage, yes in a heartbeat, whatever it was. But then again I don't really like any of my relatives by marriage.
