New Yorkers are given an inducement to rat out their gun-owning neighbors.

Check out the photo of Governor Andrew Cuomo at the linked article. Looks like a mafia capo from central casting.

    Pffft! That $500 won't pay for ten minutes of a defense lawyer's time when a legal gun owner sues his neighbor for the illegal police raid on his house.

    I thought those were anonymous tips!

    Because I'd be turning in all the politicians for sure.

    Didn't 'mafia capos' consider themselves "men of honour"?

    Cheers

    I'm sure they felt they could legitimately say that 'cause they never got into politics... they just bought politicians.

    Cuomo could never be a capo. He's more like Joe Broz's kid in the Spencer novels.
