Ok, as for the OP - since anything "artsy" gives me gas put me down for a yes vote on both. As for the rest, really folks you might want to stop and think about this in terms of what is appropriate for the venue, not in terms of what is considered "artistic" enough, because truthfully from what I've seen that's what the Ops are actually attempting to evaluate here when it comes to firearms pictures.
I maybe wrong here but if I'm understanding the policy correctly it isn't the quality of the image that determines whether or not it meets the criteria for whether or not it should be posted, but rather does the posting/image itself somehow relate to photography. I don't think they are evaluating these things based on exposure or composition or anything of that nature, rather they are trying to decide if the poster is posting it in a fashion that makes it appropriate for the venue.
Or maybe a more simplistic version, I think the question to ask yourself is are you posting these because they somehow relate to a discussion of photography or are you posting them just so you can start a pissing contest? If you can't honestly say yes to the former, well then you can't really blame the powers that be for taking action on the later.
Just my 2 cents worth of course, YMMV
