10 t-shirts for gun nuts that will make you laugh-sob for humanity

5) Guns Don’t Kill People/Dads With Pretty Daughters Kill People
THE DESCRIPTION:(It simply restates what’s printing on the T-shirt)
MY TAKE: How can so much wrong be on one T-shirt? So, not only does this T-shirt condone shooting people, but there is also a slight incestuous angle to it.
