[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 783532, member: 11717"] I found this in another forum... any truth to it? With many people going to unknowingly become criminals overnight on April 15th 2014, New Yoikahs can rat on their neighbors. This is [B]exactly[/B] what I said would happen in past posts. Just like DC did in the early '70's when the district banned firearms for citizens. They haven't put up the signs yet though. Probably will do that to increase the cash-flow. This from NYSRPA, the state has a press release: "The state has established a toll-free tip line – 1-855-GUNSNYS (1-855- 486-7697) to encourage residents to report illegal firearm possession. The tip line also allows for information to be submitted via text – individuals can text GUNTIP and their message to CRIMES (274637). While the state will provide the administrative support and fund the [URL="http://www.falfiles.com/forums/showthread.php?t=349925#"]rewards[/URL], the investigation and validity of the tip will be up to each local department. To spread the word about this free resource, New York State is planning a comprehensive campaign, including public service announcements that will air on television and radio stations across Upstate. The tip line can provide your agencies with another avenue for receiving intelligence about crimes being committed in your jurisdictions. This initiative is designed for communities where no tip lines are in place and is not meant to replace existing gun tip lines. Here’s how the tip line operates: The New York State Police staff the tip line 24 hours a day. Upon receiving a call, troopers will solicit as much information as possible regarding a firearm tip, while allowing the individual to remain anonymous. The caller will be informed that this program is not the traditional gun buyback program but rather is focused on identifying individuals who are carrying an illegal firearm. The State Police will in turn contact the appropriate police agency with the lead to initiate an investigation. Staff from the Division of [URL="http://www.falfiles.com/forums/showthread.php?t=349925#"]Criminal Justice[/URL] Services (DCJS) will follow up with that agency to determine the validity of the lead. Once the investigation is completed, the police agency would convey to DCJS the outcome of the investigation. If the information leads to an arrest for the illegal possession of a firearm, the “tipster” will be awarded $500. DCJS staff will handle all of the financial transactions. State Police staff will explain the program in its entirety upon notifying an agency that a lead has been generated for their jurisdiction. If you have any questions in the interim, please contact DCJS Deputy Commissioner Tony Perez in the Office of Public Safety at 518-485-7610. Janine Kava Director of Public Information" [/QUOTE]
