Christmas Merriment Gone Wrong: Walmart Is Selling A Sweater That Shows Santa Doing Drugs

Ho, ho, ho, oh no!

How would you like your Christmas sweater to be? One with a Christmas tree? Or Santa Claus? Well, this Walmart sweater is beyond anyone's imagination! It is a Christmas sweater which has a subtle reference to drugs.

After it went up for sale on its website, the design drew flak from people on social media. A regretful Walmart then gave a statement to Global News on Saturday and said, ¡°These sweaters, sold by a third-party seller on Walmart.ca, do not represent Walmart¡¯s values and have no place on our website. We have removed these products from our marketplace. We apologize for any unintended offence this may have caused.¡±

However, the image has already gone viral on social media, which shows Santa Claus sitting behind a table, which has three rows of a white, powdery element that looks like cocaine. The blue-coloured sweater reads in white ¡®Let it snow¡¯.

The product description on Walmart's website reads, 'We all know how snow works. It¡¯s white, powdery and the best snow comes straight from South America. That¡¯s bad news for jolly old St. Nick, who lives far away in the North Pole'.

Meanwhile, people on Twitter were quick to react to this overly merry piece of Christmas clothing.

Back in September, two 'brilliant' Indonesian thieves decided to take out small parts of a bridge and sell them for approximately Rs 640 (125,000 Indonesian Rupiah) to use all of the money to buy meth and play games in Internet cafes. Sadly, the plan turned out to be a massive flop.

The missing bolts and metal plates on the bridge that connected Senapelan and Rumbai Pesisir districts in Pekanbaru, had apparently weakened the structure. So much so, officials were planning to close it down for repairs, before they came to know about the miscreants.

After investigation, both men were arrested.

Well, with most of the world battling drug abuse, we do not think it's a great idea for Santa to endorse it. Plain old candy canes work just fine.
