The phrase was famously uttered by the TV villain during Negan’s introduction to the small screen, but someone who has never watched The Walking Dead took offense, and now the t-shirt is being whisked out of the major chain.
Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who plays Negan on the AMC series, recently saw the news and has a decidedly blunt opinion about the controversy.
Here’s what he had to say.
Yesterday, news broke that a Walking Dead t-shirt is getting pulled from U.K. Primark stores after someone complained about the racist nature of a t-shirt stating “eeny meeny miny moe” next to an image of Negan’s bat Lucille in the company’s Sheffield, England location.
