why do people ask "is it art or vandalism" as if those where mutually exclusive traits. It is art and it is vandalism.

It should be noted that the vehicles in this story are more likely to kill or injure someone than are the legally purchased firearms. I doubt that any one would dream of blaming the car or the dealer for traffic accidents as they are clearly the fault of the driver.

The same goes for the weapons. They can be owned and used legally and responsibly. Ensuring that they are is the responsibility of the gun owner not the dealer or the manufacturer or anyone else who's finger isn't on the trigger.
