Love it and so true. Although minorities are pretty well represented on the show, though my facebook feed was filled with the tolerant left's outcry on the racism of the walking dead.

Mine was more concise, but not as professional looking.

The governor's black man didn't last long as well.

That is so stupid. Basically just "there can only be one black person, unless of course there's more. In that case we disregard it. But they, like everyone else, ALMOST die so it counts!!"
What about Sasha?
They tried way too hard to cram the "black people are expendable" meme.

Based on absolutely no sound reasoning or evidence from the show.

Sound reasoning? It's about a zombie show where there will be no evidence because the constant death of the black male is something that only the fans joke about. There is no design by the creators to do this.

What is this saying? There can only be one black on the show?

Thats my whole point. This would be hilarious if it was based on ANYTHING from the show haha. Im not gonna read that infographic again but i think like one time did "X died the same episode Y showed up" happen. Every other time its just "the rule was suspended for a season" or "the rule took a different form and only allowed for one per group" or "Tyrese was wearing the beanie of invincibility which is universally known to fight the black highlander rule".
I just dont see how anyone could watch this show and lend enough credence to this concept to make if funny. Even reading that infographic thats sole purpose was to paint things in the light of this rule didnt make any sense.

I've thought for a long time that there was a black Highlander thing going on with the show, as have others. This isn't anything new at all. It's just a funny take on some things from the show.
And there is definitely evidence of it on the show, just not overwhelming evidence because, well, surely the showrunners aren't killing off black dudes because of some made up highlander rule. But there are definitely circumstances that make people make jokes about it.
Good fricking Lord, man.

Ive spent like 1% of the time on this than the person that put it together.

I agree this is fn stupid. And it really only happened once, when Tyrese joined the group.

This photo just proves that morgan is the black Duncan mc cloud

And with Oscar. And with T Dawg. And when Noah showed up.
But whatever.

That would be when Tyrese's group showed up.

T Dawg.
T Dog lived for a very long time. People die in this show, white people and black people. Plus him and Oscar were alive on multiple episodes.

Noah showed up.
Who died when Noah showed up? Are we blaming Bob and Tyrese's death on him? And ignoring how long Bob and Tyrese co-existed? Are we forgetting that Gabriel is still alive?

It doesn't mean that literally as soon as a black dude shows up the other one dies or they immediately cause it, like the actual Highlander.
I bet you and Hester would be a blast to watch this show with...I picture both of you pushing your galsses up higher on your nose every time you make a point in this thread.
