Fact Shirt is a site that you have probably already been directed to by several other blogs. However, it seems to me they are seriously lacking in certain areas. Their t-shirts are simple white with large black lettering, stating a simple statistic. Some of them just make you shake your head and maybe say a prayer, like, "About half the pregnant women in Southern Asia get no prenatal care." Others lead one to ask another question, such as, "1 in 32 American adults were incarcerated or on probation or parole in 2003." Okay, question: How many of them deserved to be there because of their behavior? Here's one that confuses me: "Risk of death from maternal causes is 89% greater in Africa than in Europe." What the heck does this mean? You're 89% more likely to be killed by your mother if you live in Africa? Here's another one that should be accompanied by an additional statistic on the reverse side of the shirt (or something): "Over 32 million adults are living with HIV/AIDS." Question: How many contracted HIV because of irresponsible behavior?
After looking through the site and searching for a few keywords, it seems they have no shirts detailing the number of uses per year of a firearm legally used in self defense, or the number of unborn babies every year killed by abortion.
