Change Winston's name to 'Harambe'

The issue

Justice reigns!

But justice still doesn't reign for Harambe.

Unfortunately, Harambe's life was unfairly ended all too soon. However, due to the circumstances, nobody is arguably to blame.

When triggered in game, an ironic conversation between Reaper and Winston hits home all too hard:

Reaper: "Poor Winston. Has to hide away so he doesn't scare the children."
Winston: "I don't even think children are afraid of you."

How can we give Harambe the justice he deserves? How can we tell the world that we care? How can a gaming giant get Play of the Game by helping us mend our broken hearts?

The solution is simple.

 

Blizzard, please consider changing Winston's name to 'Harambe'.

 

It's a no-brainer. You have the power. The timing is perfect. Help us do something about it. Pay respect to this beautiful, albeit short-lived being by renaming this tank character in his honor.

If you can't change his name, at least give us a Harambe skin.

God bless you, God bless everyone for signing this petition, and God bless America.
