Paintings of Mayor Rahm Emanuel and President Barack Obama, both holding handguns, stand guard during an anti-NATO workshop today for members of Occupy Chicago at their temporary headquarters near Chinatown.

Pretty bad Photoshop work. If you look through the backs of the chairs in the last row, both Emanuel and Obama appear to be floating about two feet above the floor.

but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda,
they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."  — Jeff Cooper, The Art of the Rifle

Wow. Then the artist has a poor sense of perspective. I guess I shouldn't be so critical though - I'm no Rembrandt, either.

Buzzard, they are rectangle boards with the paintings of the men on them in free space. There is not even any ground of ceiling in the paintings from which perspective could be skewed.

They should have painted Obama carrying the Nuclear Football in one hand and a button with a cord attached in the other.  Rahm would simply have his hand on the flush handle of a toilet labeled "Illinois".

Quite some irony there. Far left liberals there to protest their own party and then taking two of the most anti-gun politicians in the country and putting guns in their hands. I guess it's art?

Just because they're left, doesn't mean they embrace the "official" office holders who happen to be left leaning.  I gathered that it has to do with the force that they both use in the enforcement of their policies.

Lol I agree. Not well done but I am lucky to draw a stick figure so...
