Kirk Franklin Threatens Violence on Internet Troll During Heated Debate

Kirk Franklin has threatened to put his arms – or guns?- on an internet troll, and this has gotten folks talking about how a Christian should not be so provoked to make threats.

The drama started yesterday after the Gospel singer joined the growing list of celebrities condemning Trump’s Executive Order which bans citizens of certain countries from gaining access into the United States.

“I am a Christian who would rather sit at the table with a Muslim brother than ban him from a home that wasn’t originally mine,” Franklin tweeted, and this did not sit well with an American.

“I trust u’ll be leaving ur doors unlocked tonight. Oh & ur brothers want to know if u have a daughter,” the troll fired back at the singer, and Franklin pulled on his boxing gloves and dared the troll to pay him a visit.

“Yes I have a daughter and the ability to protect her,” Kirk Franklin said, adding, “Please come so I can have a reason to introduce you to it in Jesus name.”

In hours, the clapback went viral. While some fans praised the singer for putting the troll in his place, some others noted how tacky the reply was.

Also, the troll accused Kirk Franklin of threatening everyone’s daughter, and the singer quickly corrected, and then went on to educate folks following him on how they need to learn how to disagree without making personal attacks.

See the tweets:

@HistoryCarper lol, brother, you attacked MY daughter. I just let you know that I wasn't having any of that.

Morning family. Since my tweet about Muslim ban yesterday, my timeline has been filled with people fighting with each other to be right…

Using God as their defense and attacking my theology for using the word "brother" to define my relationship with someone different than me-

It was a term of endearment. But because we have been fed fear we're quick to react and not give grace to each other.

We need an international class on communication and agreeing to disagree without attacking character. This can't continue…

Everyone will lose. No one wins when the agenda is to be right. I don't know everything..no one does. But pride will kill this country..
