    Default Walmart Removes Threatening Shirt From Store

    While I've never personally been threatened by a shirt before...

    'Rope. Tree. Journalist. Some Assembly Required': Walmart Removes Threatening Shirt From Store
    Walmart has removed a shirt bearing the words “Rope. Tree. Journalist. Some assembly required” from its website, following a complaint from a journalist advocacy group.

    The shirt was listed on Walmart’s website through a third-party seller, Teespring, which allows people to post their own designs for sale.

    “This item was sold by a third-party seller on our marketplace and clearly violates our policy,” a Walmart statement said, according to CBS News. “We removed it as soon as it was brought to our attention, and are conducting a thorough review of the seller’s assortment.” Walmart reportedly removed the shirt five hours after the complaint was made, according to the Radio Television Digital News Association (RTDNA), which made the complaint.
    This political correctness is more endangering than people getting over words that they don't agree with.

    I guess the old joke, "What do you call 1,000 lawyers at the bottom of the sea? A good start." is now "hate speech".

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
