UNC fraternity brothers honored for defending American flag against anti-Israel mob: 'Beacon of hope'

UNC fraternity brothers awarded for defending flag against mob: 'Listen to what the red, white and blue truly means to us'
As campus protests broke out across the nation earlier this year, a group of fraternity brothers at UNC-Chapel Hill captured the attention of the nation with their act of patriotism.

The group was honored at Fox Nation's 6th annual Patriot Awards.

UNC students Guillermo Estrada and Alex Jones accepted the "Award for Courage" during the Patriot Awards, which honored the fraternity for holding up the American flag as pro-Palestinian protesters tried to replace the Stars and Stripes with a Palestinian flag.
 
"We didn't hesitate when we saw our flag being torn back down because this flag represents the beacon of hope that called my parents to this great country 20 years ago," Estrada said during the awards.

"The promise of liberty and prosperity that makes America a light to the world. That is what that flag represents."

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I'm surprised, in this day and age, they weren't arrested for denying the mob it's "civil rights." :whistle:

Very impressive.
