Eeny Meeny Miny Moe Shirt - Pulled by Primark!

in primark •  8 years ago 

Have you all heard of Primark pulling the Walking Dead T-Shirt featuring the sentence "Eeny Meeny Miny Moe" and the famous Lucille baseball bat due to a complaint by some random customer saying it's racist.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME??

What has the world come to?? Seriously! There is NOTHING racist about this and it's just an innocent reference to a very big scene in Walking Dead.

Yes. I know about the version of this very old rhyme with it's slightly racist undertones but this shirt no way implies that and if you heard the version in the show you would know the phrase used was "catch a tiger by his toe".

Kids use this rhyme all the time to make descisions on picking things and no one bats an eyelid.

Come on people take a chill pill and get a life!!!

Ahh.. that's better, just wanted to rant.

Thoughts please?

(BTW - just found a version very similar is still available here if you want one

Eeny meeny many moe t shirt )

Cheers.
