McClenaghan didn’t know that his reaction on Twitter would have to deal with a jerk and teach him a lesson. This time was no different as the Muslims receive a lot of criticism whenever there is an attack. A lot of people used social media platforms to spread hatred against the followers of Islam.

McClenaghan did not spare his follower and slammed him for posting such an insensitive remark. “This is a terrible comment. To judge purely on someone’s race or religion is horrendous! Exactly why there is hate in this world!”

The guy was not in a mood of stopping the argument. He went on to explain his logic to Mitchell. He said, “What is terrible is those persons who want the implementation of Sharia Worldwide and killing people of other religion and atheists.”

The user went on to blame Islam. He said according to me, Islam is creating all these issues. He tweeted, “Should have said Islam, my fault. If people fail to recognize there is a problem with Islam we can never solve it.”

For this, the user tweeted, “There are many terrorist attacks going on worldwide, but only those on important cities get the limelight. Tweets and hashtags are not enough.”

After a small conversation, McClenaghan was not in a mood to continue it and ignored it.
Religion is a very sensitive topic and Twitter users don’t seem to understand that. Every issue will finally be linked with religion, which is so very wrong. We support Mitchell for his clear thoughts on the matter. He could have kept quiet, but instead, he chose to slam the user.
