From the New Haven Independent:
By Georgia Kral
In an effort to encourage people to call the Gun Tip-Line, city cops sponsored a bumper sticker contest...That must be some bumper sticker.
...The project was spearheaded by Officer Joe Avery, pictured with slogan scribe Chris Arnott, managing editor of the New Haven Advocate.
"The chief asked me to come up with a bumper sticker. I threw around some ideas but then I thought, 'Let's make this fun and get the public involved,'" Avery said.
The contest and Tip-Line are part of a larger effort to stop gun violence in New Haven.

So is this going on all of the police cars, too...
"The public" consisted of the local newspaper editor who is decidedly anti-2nd amendment?
How about getting the local gun club's input on how you are spending their tax money?
How about your chief betting a year's pay on this tip line getting one gun used in a crime off the streets?
"How about your chief betting a year's pay on this tip line getting one gun used in a crime off the streets?"
Now that is a heck of an idea. Make these idjits put their money where their mouths are.
If it was that wretched cartoon piece of crap on the sticker, I'd rather not be shooting it, too.
Now those of us in non-urban areas can get behind "stop snitchin'". And the Police wonder why fewer and fewer cooperate.....
