Wow, that really sucks! As you said, I hope it's not true.
Is this really going to have any material impact? What is the success rate with other "rewards"?
Seems to me it would either lend istelf to more chaos, more wasted time, or no results... and not illegally posessed firearms being removed from circulation.

Fox New now reporting about the program. How in the hell are you going to know if someone has an illegal firearm. The brown shirts, the brown shirts are in NY!
ALBANY, N.Y. – Nearly a year before signing the nation's most stringent gun control measure into law, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo launched a hotline that allows state residents to report illegal gun owners in exchange for a $500 reward.

To all of us in NY. Please make a point to notify ALL of your friends about this law. We owe it to everyone to notify the less informed amongst us that this is a possibility.
We all have that friend that is open about his ownership, and i would hate to see any of us go down for 500 bucks.
^ Agreed. Imperitive to be sure all your "I"s are dotted and your "T"s are crossed if you are going to excercise any right associated with the Second Amendment in NY.
Damn shame when you start second guessing yourself for even considering wearing a logo t-shirt or have to start scrutinizing photos that could appear in public to make sure that there aren't any clues to firearm ownership.
I've been the opposite lately, just about wore out my "Stand and Fight" NRA shirt recently just because I decided I'm not going down hiding and fearing the left. It has actually sparked a number of interesting conversations with some people who were curious enough to ask.
