The T-shirt design dates back to at least 2014.
... The T-shirt was never described or sold as a"Guns and 69" product until after Paul tweeted the image.
On March 18, 2023, U.S. Sen. Rand Paul tweeted a photograph of himself and a student who wore a T-shirt that displayed an American flag symbol made out of firearm images. In, Paul expressed disbelief that the student was disciplined for wearing the shirt in Utah: This fact check has two elements. First: the question of the original tweet's authenticity and the assertion that Paul deleted it. This element is true: ArchivedThe second element is the assertion that the name of the T-shirt pictured in the image was, as several online commenters claimed,"Guns and 69." Jezebel Editor-in-Chief Laura Bassett pointed out that the positioning of the guns on the shirt resembles the number 69, an allusion to an oral sex act.
"The pistols literally make a 6 and 9 you guys lol. Just google the shirt, I didn't name it myself," she added."It's literally advertised as the 'Guns and 69 shirt' by the maker selling it," another commenterThis element of the fact check is false. Snopes has yet to identify a single online store selling a"Guns and 69" T-shirt with this design that existed prior to Rand's viral and now deleted tweet.
