Rejected petition Make Primark put back on sale the Walking Dead 'eeny meeny miny moe' t shirt.

A line from the old rhyme was used by the character Negan in the Walking Dead as a way of picking who he would kill next. No racial connotations were implied or meant. Yet, on the back of one complaint from a customer who said it was racist, Primark decided to remove the t-shirt from it's stores.
