speaking from my own opinion (and playstyle) Arms is (imo) far more fun, but normally i see more ppl as fury, and they all tend to be quite confident that fury IS (and always has been) more dps than Arms. (notice capital A, i'm biased)
Checked your armory, you're Orc, meaning free expertise with axes, there really is no question, since the mace you have (as usual, it's my opinion) is a crappy dk tanking weapon. Mace-specc ignore's armor? yes why not, but its still crap, if you want my opinion.
And for the love of <insert name of preferred God here> CHANGE that meta, and get rid of your cloak, agility is utter crap, and that wont change.

Good heavens. First of all I would strongly advise that you read some of the stickies on spec, gemming, stats and so on.
The general consensus on the Arms v. Fury debate is that Arms is superior in dps to Fury early on, however once Fury reaches the necessary caps (hit, expertise, even crit to a degree) you will start to see the numbers level out, even surpass Arms. Arms has a little more ply with these stats, since there is no 27% hit deficit from the get-go.
Either spec you decide to use, I would strongly recommend that you work toward your 8% hit rating, 26 expertise (6.5% - with talents) and from there around 30% crit is nominal. As with above, the Axe would do you slightly better given the free expertise you get from being an Orc, and by the look of how low your expertise is currently.
To refute the above poster's posit on agility: I would say to you that agility is a viable stat for its crit rating in lieu of strength being available. It is only a crutch until you get strength - and that counts double for Fury.
