"Shocking" and "Racist" T-shirt

[Cold]

Budget clothes retailer Primark has pulled its stocks of a Walking Dead T-shirt after a (one) complaint that it was racist.
The shirt bore the legend "Eeny, Meeny, Miny, Moe" and a picture of a bloodied baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire - both the choice of Walking Dead's character Negan who has a little trouble with post apocalyptic zombies being a touch antisocial.

Tasteless, yes. Racist?

Its not said in the programme....and if there was anything to be complained about it would be the very brutal beating that followed immediately after the rhyme!

Weren't those on the receiving end of the beatings Zombies? Grey Lives Matter.

I was born in 1972. Our version at school was 'nipper'. Dangerously close to the original...

So are bigger, digger, rigger etc. That's languages for you. Always available to provide offence to those on the hunt for it.

Can I say hunt?
