Using Tor does not mean that you are an exit node. You have to actually set that up and it is warning you about it. Using Tor as a client only is safe and secure.

If people do bad things through your exit node, you are in danger regardless where you live. The law enforcement must be aware of what your server was doing. Its understanding varies from place to place.

OK, then I guess I made that decision to chicken out about running an exit node. It seems a bit parasitic to not run one and still participate, though?

The Tor nodes are not anonymous, so nobody expects users of a Tor node to run their own...they're trying to be anonymous.
