OK!Lets say they do...
3. When it is their word against someone else's word, they have to stand behind it and stay there, not hide behind anonymity.
Not heard of Crimestoppers then?
4. If there is no evidence, and no witness statement, the report will just go in the bin, or in the bottom of a dusty drawer.
OF course,but IF there is evidence then there is no problem is there but to get to this stage a crime still needs to be reported.
5. Finally, if the person reporting wants to actually stop the crime, they cannot stay anonymous.
Yes they can..That's how Crimestoppers came about.
By the way, in connection with being hypocrite in crime treating, wasn't the person asking the initial question the same one that asked recently how to change their IP address in order to avoid a ban from a torrent tracker? I just wonder what the reason for this ban was?

Now we get down to why you have a beef with the OP..Why didn't you say so in the first place?
But we still come back to the point that saying someone is a grass for reporting a crime whether anonymously or not, is not helpful and that the law regards all stealing as a crime.
Only murder and violent assault are regard as more heinous crimes and I'm hoping none here would hesitate to report anything they know of such a crime.
