Considering what happens in Chicago on a regular basis in spite of local gun control laws, you’d think the lectures from gun control proponents, delivered through art or otherwise, might be a little more self-aware, but that’s not often the case. Here’s a piece of “art” in Chicago designed to make the following point:
A Chicago art exhibit lined with replicas of AR-15 rifles is structured to make it look as though getting a weapon is as easy as renting a bike https://t.co/Oi9GnQZm2U pic.twitter.com/K7k7caWjsa

Well that’s… something.
Nowhere in this story does it point out this "representation" is completely false.
I for one cannot imagine why people cheer when Trump calls the media #FakeNews https://t.co/CN9mGhE6Aw

I wonder why they couldn't actually build a gun dispenser and prove their point. https://t.co/Inyp2KLL3l

This is just beyond stupid and demonstrative of CNN's inherent bias since you know better. This exhibit isn't news. #MediaBias

The dumbest thing I have seen. I am part of a bike rental program in my city and all they asked for was my address and credit card information. Nothing comparable to buying a gun. https://t.co/7pytdNcqjW

Watch out, because it looks like the exhibit might have backfired:
Now THAT'S a fantastic business idea…
Uber for guns!
Lots of ranges rent guns, but only whatever they have on hand… https://t.co/JihSMJ40A9
