Eso No Computa

Mexicans are being invited to exchange their weapons for computers under a quirky new idea to curb rampant crime in Mexico City.

Authorities in one of the city's 16 districts are offering a new computer, out of 150 donated by a charitable foundation, for each gun handed in.

Well, this'll have absolutely no effect on violent crime, but it does sound like a great incentive for "authorities" to trade in confiscated weapons...
