AZ Family reports that gallery owners Pete and Valerie Fowler believe the city made the decision, in part, because of the terror attack in Orlando, but the PRD contends it voted to reject the gallery prior to that. PRD spokesman Gregg Bach said, “The planning committee was not comfortable with an exhibit/game that presented guns in a fun or glorified way.” Pete observed, “If it had happened immediately following the shooting in Orlando, I would have been a bit more understanding, but this was just out of the blue. For us to make this business work, we have to get into big events like (Fabulous Phoenix 4th).” |

| Guns ARE fun, though. If you can't see that they're just inanimate objects that bear no one any ill will, and that are as good or bad as the people holding them, then that's a problem with you, not the inanimate object. It's no different than having a car show, which also presents certain inanimate objects as fun or glorious, even though tens of thousands die each year in crashes. |
