Would you testify against a gangsta if you were promised witness protection?

No! Its not worth it to put my family and me in danger. Witness protection sucks. I would not want to live the rest of my life running in fear. I dont care what they did. The only exception would be if they had originally done something to my family in the first place, in that case I would risk my life just so he/she saw justice.

Alternative: Handle it myself

Nope! Wouldn't testify against a puppy for eating dog food even if it had me caught on tape watching him eat it. The legal system just gives me the shakes sometimes. i've seen people handed right over to people they were promised protection from. Well I haven't seen it personally but i've heard about back in my old community and seen documentary's about it.

Yes I would but, I wouldn't want protection from gangsters, just immunity. I would request this because I would go on the hunt before they started hunting me. Methodical elimination by stealth creates a fear where one is incapable of thinking rationally.

good answer...

The government is so full of BS today (e.g., I would jump off a bridge before I testify against anyone if I witnessed a crime, I let a bus run over child before attemping to save it, and I would keep my mouth shut if I was told a head of time that someone was going to get shot.) Anyone who tells you that they can protect you in any shape or form that holds a position of authority would throw you under that bus, has the ability to blow your head off, and would send you to fight a war 5 terms in a country where they themselves would tie your hands behind your back, cover your eyes and put a bullet in your brain, just the same. I am confident about this as much as I know they have done it to me. The DOL, Attorney General in WA, and Justice Deparment allowed my identity to be revealed after getting a full legal identity change, and they allowed me to be blacked mailed and did nothing about it. They threw me under that bus, I did nothing to deserve this, my home is my prison. Do not trust anyone when they tell you they can protect you, they are liars, you are nothing but bait! Other countries would be careless to trust us when we can't even trust each other. Don't ask if you can't handle what really is going on in this country!

I did and I'm safe, living in Mexico, free cook, house cleaner, car, booze, mary jane, broads all ready when needed. My real name was 728&^% (*^$@!, now my name is @#$%%^ >>+)*T^$R. PLUS $4000bucks a month.

No i would not, I mind my own business. I would not want to get involoved
