(CBS/What's Trending) - A short exchange between Miley Cyrus and one of her fans is quickly becoming one of the most talked about topics on Twitter. After Cyrus posted a picture of her new pro-equal rights tattoo, one fan, MileyCyrusLuver, tweeted that the pop singer and actress shouldn't be supporting gay rights, citing several Bible passages. Though the two disagreed, neither harbored ill-will toward each other, the young fan even posting she was thrilled Cyrus messaged her directly.What followed next, however, was a deluge of hate-filled messages directed toward MileyCyrusLuver from Cyrus' fans, ranging from telling the girl to go kill herself to suggesting she walk directly in front of traffic.
- @MileyCyrus look up Leviticus, 1 Corinthians. Read both chapters and tell me where God says homosexuality, incest, and polygamy is ok?
- @MileyCyrusLuver where does it say in the bible to judge others? Oh right. It doesn't. GOD is the only judge honey. "GOD is love"
- @MileyCyrus yes, but in 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 explains why I don't support it. And omg I can't believe you replied to me!!
- The short exchange between the singer and her fan might have otherwise gone unnoticed. However, hordes of Cyrus' fans verbally attacked the fan, even delivering death threats.
- @mileycyrusluver it's people like you that mean people like me are not free to marry and love who we want.@mileycyrus
- This led to Cyrus tweeting to stop the harassment of one of her fans, and vice versa.
- Dude everyone lay off @MileyCyrusLuver Love u! Everyone is entitled 2 opinions! "if u don't stand 4 something you'll fall for anything." :)
- Everyone LAY OFF on @MileyCyrus! how'd u like it if u were hated 4 expressing YOUR opinion? It's not so "fun & games" when it happens to you
- People online were quick to point out that the most disturbing part of the whole situation was not either girls opinion, but that others were so quick to issue death threats.
- For the record!! @MileyCyrus DIDN'T make me cry. She was just replying back. Don't blame her. What made me cry was the death threats.
- @MileyCyrusLuver youre getting death threats?! T_T wow.... people on here need to get a life.
- @mileycyrusluver While I don't share your opinion on marriage equality, I do respect it and think it's heinous that you're being threatened.
