And, The Troy Record also has news on the tip line on their Facebook page – It is real. There is actually someone there to take your tips… So that state officials can come take your guns.
NY 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). 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 then contact the appropriate police agency with the lead to initiate an investigation. If the information leads to an arrest for the illegal possession of a firearm, the “tipster” will be awarded $500.
This is like something you’d read about in China or Cuba, not America.
They now have a Gestapo in addition to a Hitler ya think? Next, Brown Shirts to go with their Death Panels and Hospice Centers/Camps.
History is repeating itself for those too devoid of gray matter to remember it.
It's racist.
Thank you!
You are so right! And so it begins. What next free skittles for kids who turn in their parents?
Thanks mm. How many innocent people will be turned in by a money grubby low life? Unreal!
I can only imagine.
I used to live in Fulton.
“What next free skittles for kids who turn in their parents?”
Nah, green onions and raw broccoli. Michelle, er, Michael Bloomberg mandates healthy foods for the little tykes.

The democrats are ruining America - a little more, every single day.
My goodness. My hometown. Ha!
Poor you.....
We moved there when we got married, not knowing what to expect.
Moved out years later making it one of the happiest days of my life.
The only thing I miss is the smell of chocolate whenever it was going to rain.
#ing Nazi scumbags.
I predicted this many moons ago...
See, I told you so...
Now, lesse if $500 is enough to turn family member against another family member???
I wonder if there is a way to overload this system??? You know, how we used to burn up the lines to D.C. at times...This is an 800 number, right???
Just call, and as soon as they answer, hang up...It’s got to cost them money right???
Last I heard it may not be a punishable crime to prank call...This is not 911, so you are not jamming up an emergency hotline, calling because McDonalds doesn’t have Chicken McNuggets or something stupid like that...
I’m jus sayin’...
BA-ZIN-GA!
New Yorkers; break out your phone books and start dialing.
We live several miles from there. Our house is set back 300 feet from the rural road. When we first bought the land we planted over 3,000 evergreens. Love it.
Or try it with illegal immigrants!
God I am so glad I left Hell.
This is very scary because everyone knows the power of the offended.
