Mexico City Starts 'Games for Guns' Campaign

eldavojohn writes "Strange as it may sound, Mexico City is giving it their all in their efforts to crack down on gun related violence. The chief of police has 'announced that anyone prepared to surrender a high-calibre weapon, such as a machine gun, will receive a free computer in exchange. And, perhaps in the interests of scale and fair play, anyone turning in a smaller calibre handgun will be presented with either cash remuneration or an Xbox videogame console.'"

Mexico City is just like the towns around Orange County, California

This is the only sentence in the entire post with the word "Mexico." I didn't read the rest.

I just spent all my mod points for today, but if I had any left I'd mod this up simply because it's conceptually funny.

Observe:

Mexico City is like Orange County and Orange County is GAY! See my Source!

In conclusion, GAY!

Thanks, M. Gregory Thomas(tm) (what??), you are totally batshit nuts and have given me 2 minutes of amusement.
