Quando si parla di armi, almeno ogni tanto, la notizia è di quelle buona: persino in un Paese come il Messico, noto piuttosto per i problemi di contenimento della violenza. Ieri a Città del Messico, la capitale, sono infatti state distrutte dall’esercito – sotto gli occhi dei fotografi e di altri intervenuti – un gran numero di armi confiscate al crimine organizzato, oppure volontariamente consegnate da privati cittadini che hanno scelto di non servirsene più. Un piccolo, ma significativo segnale.
