A short video clip of men firing at unarmed civilians who are kneeled in front of them, surfaced on the teenager's account.

We don't need more negative a** holes here."

Rocco, who has almost 92,404 followers, immediately started receiving mixed comments and reactions. Some were quite critical and accusing while others applauded the effort of the teenager, the Mirror reported. Other followers were disturbed and claimed that a boy of such young age should not be watching or posting explicit videos. However, there were users who applauded Rocco's efforts to create awareness about the issue of terrorism.

The video was removed by Instagram within half an hour as it clearly violated the terms and conditions of the social media, which state that no violent, nude, unlawful or hateful content will be posted through this platform.

Among the young boy's supporters is the Queen of Pop herself. Madonna also jumped in to shield her beloved son from critics. She posted message on the social media stating her support for her son's effort wholeheartedly, claiming that he exhibited the strength of his freedom fighting blood through the message he posted.

Madonna's post also received mixed reactions. Some people appreciated her gesture of supporting her son for the right cause. Other users, however, accused the mother-son duo of shifting the world media attention from a bigger threat to the world from Ebola to ISIS.

Rocco is the son of iconic singer Madonna and her ex-husband Guy Ritchie. Madonna shares a close bond with her children and is actively involved in their activities. Recently, she posted a video footage of her other son, who has been hailed as a child prodigy, showing some really cool dance moves.
