After Patriotic Students Protect U.S. Flag – They Get a Beautiful Gift From True Americans

Anti-Israel protests have erupted across numerous colleges. After (in some cases) weeks of chaos, police have been cracking down. But that hasn’t stopped progressives from spreading antisemitic slogans and even turning on the U.S.

In several cases, including at the University of North Carolina, protesters tore down the U.S. flag in place of the Palestinian flag. The school ordered the American flag returned to its proper place. Despite this, radical activists tried, once again, to remove it.

That’s when the boys of Pi Kappa Phi stepped in.

A group of frat brothers protected the American flag, even as protesters assaulted them with bottles and other projectiles. It was possible that these students could have faced physical assault, given the militancy of pro-Hamas students. But one of them said he’d be willing to die to protect the flag.

From The Post Millennial:
Daniel Stompel, a political science student and member of Pi Kappa Phi, said there was a communal sense of duty among the group, with all of them deciding they would defend the flag even if it meant being injured, or worse…

“I was like, ‘I’d die for this flag,’ and everybody was like, ‘yeah, if they get any closer we’re gonna start throwing hands,” Stompel added. “They’re gonna have to tear me off this flag by my dead body.”

Images of these brave young men quickly went viral. In the face of growing American and Israeli hatred, we see men proudly protecting the country. These young men represent everything the radical left hates: masculinity, patriotism, bravery, and strength.

Protesters have tried to hide their identities using scarves and masks. Yet these men stood down the entitled, America-hating horde, unashamed. To thank them, a GoFundMe was started to raise money for a celebration. And patriots went crazy to support them.

From Daily Caller:
The American billionaire and activist investor Bill Ackman’s name appeared as a top donor rewarding a Greek-letter fraternity at the University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill for defending the U.S. national flag, a fundraiser created early Wednesday showed.

Donations have since grown from the initial $15 to $222,978, overshooting its initial goal of $150,573 and nearing its new goal of $225,000 as of the time of this report.

At the time of this story, the fundraiser has reached over $400,000. The outpouring of support for a small group of men defending the flag has inspired thousands of Americans. The image of them holding up the flag might be the highlight of the year.

Key Takeaways:

  • A group of fraternity brothers defending the U.S. flag from radical protesters.
  • The protesters had removed the flag and replaced it with the Palestinian flag.
  • The frat boys stepped in to prevent them from removing it again.
  • A fundraiser started to thank the students has reached over $400,000.
