A mealy mouthed reply.

Twitter user Matthew P. Doyle went unexpectedly viral on Wednesday morning after tweeting about an experience on the streets of Croydon where he claims he asked a Muslim woman to "explain Brussels". He then went to suggest all Muslims were somehow responsible for the attack, and accused the woman of a "mealy mouthed reply".

Thank you for your thoughts. The incident did happen yesterday - If I was anyway threatening - I would be reported. Confront is a bad word.
