Hours after police evicted them from an encampment on UNC-Chapel Hill’s main quad, pro-Palestinian demonstrators marched back to the site and broke down the barriers keeping them out.The protesters took an American flag down from a flagpole and then mounted a Palestinian flag in its place.

I remember when supporting terrorist organizations got you put on a watch list...
Lieden's America
Now your comments on the internet also put us there but lest they forget what the combat veterans of WWII did to stop government corruption in Tennessee. They used their guns to put it down and the citizens won .
It still does.
IT STILL DOES... BUT ONLY IF IT'S A PRO AMERICA 🇺🇸 ORGANIZATION!!!
You mean like the Israeli government?? It still does!!
Anyone that lowers an American flag and replaces it with another country’s flag should get a one way mandatory trip to that country
ABSOLUTELY AGREE 👍
I totally agree ! I wonder many of these people would go Palestine and actually fight in combat for the Palestinian citizens !
Ya think 🤔?!!!!!
👍
TO NEVER RETURN!!
Would Palestine fly an American flag. Never in a million years
How are these things not charged with treason?
Never let immigrants take down your national flag no matter what.
Or anyone who wants to replace our flag with another country or terrorists flag
Palestine is not a country or a Nation they do not have a flag or a Nationality
So Israelis are immigrants as well. We took this land from the native American Indians.
@@tiffany-sheriwageman.3702there were no native americans bc there was no America.There were tribes stealing land from other tribes.Israelis were living in Israel long before the Arabs.
@tiffany-sheriwageman.3702 actually yes. This is a country made up of legal immigrants. 👏 We are immigrants, native Americans and like myself a mixture of the 2.

@@xerxestelevision6666Why?
Deport immediately
Most are Americans!
@@marccruThose can be expelled.
@@marccruAmerican students can be expelled.
Y'all keep forgetting we have a Constitution. People have a right to express how they feel. Since 9/11, the government has a right to watch and investigate anyone that may have ties with terror organizations, also. Most of these people are natural born American citizens that have no clue as to what they're talking about. For them, it's like being in a Tik Tok challenge in an effort to gain popularity. If they really cared about people dying, they should be fighting for the people of Sudan that are displaced and starving to death. But they don't really care. They just think those keffiyeh scarves are so cool to wear, bro. 🙄 Truly sickening.
@@moondancer6488Right now on Meidas' Touch DJT's jury verdict is coming in!

That has to be considered an act of treason when you try to fly a foreign flag.
Your government flies the Israeli flag the whole time😂
@@TheNagualWilliam not in the place of our own flag. We have many flags but not to replace “old glory”.
@@teddywhite1361 what's the point having a flag when your whole country is owned by another country? You'd do better to ask who really demolished the triple towers on 9 11? That would be patriot!
@@TheNagualWilliam I love my country. It has many problems but I would rather be here than any other country. Funny thing that people want to come to America but we have people putting it down but don’t bother to leave. It’s not perfect by no means but it can be worse. I don’t like a lot of things our government does but we’re stuck with them until they can be replaced. Republicans and Democrats.

Thank you. I’m sorry to witness problems created by your government in Scotland. Cheers and wish you well !

Free Gaza? Can you free the Israeli hostages first, especially the women and children? It's been 7 months already
THANK YOU, YES!!!

They're already dead!
Plus, free Gaza and israel from hamas which Israel is doing.
And Palestine was renamed by the Romans to belittle the Jews. It means land of the Philistines.
@@jdjoja how do you know?
Hurts to see this. I am an immigrant from another nation. Every time I see the American flag I see the symbol of freedom. My immigrant mother worked 3 jobs to keep me fed and thriving in this nation. I love my heritage and origin but I will never raise a foreign flag over the American flag. I can’t be ungrateful to this nation
Your respectful.
Thank you.
As it should be. Thank you
Right on! Love from NC 🇺🇸
God bless you
Well done America be proud of your flag.

America is not Hamas, how dare people support terrorists, tell them to leave the chaotic country
Tell that to the politicians who are supporting terrorists, like Nancy etc. Get her in jail
Can we fight for our OWN damn country for fucks sake?
yeah, people are so easily emotionally controlled. but don't have the space to sympathize and take care of our own nation, America, which we have our owm problem to take care of instead of worrying about other country's war like israel, ukraine, and taiwan. our inflation, cost of living, increasing crimes, homelessness, hungerness, drug addiction/trafficking, sex trafficking issue, southern border issue are all being shoved under the rug again.

Hanging another country's flag is illegal. Disprespectful.
It’s not illegal. It’s part of the 1st Amendment.
@@The_Malaka Wrong
Yes, you can fly a flag other than the American flag, and there are guidelines for doing so. The American flag should be placed in the center of a flag display, higher than other flags unless other national flags are present, and flown first from left to right. Other flags can be the same size and height as the American flag, but never larger or higher.
Don’t be an idiot

I'm so proud to see young Americans that love our country, instead of all the people that love a country that hates them.
Absolutely DISGUSTING that they put up a Palestinian flag and lowered the American flag. DISGUSTING.
They are fighting FOR a terrorist organization, can we really expect them to respect the American flag??!
These people are so disrespectful! Thank you, brave law enforcement officers! And students chanting USA!
Please revoke the citizenship and visas of those who took down the US flag to hoist the Palestinian flag. There are several of us legal immigrants who love this country and have to wait about 100 years for citizenship.
You are the American Dream and are loved and wanted here. 🇺🇸
And that's why America loves you
I can not believe how indoctrinated the kids are!!! So sad
That’s not how freedom works though. You don’t get your citizenship and freedom yanked just for making political statements with flags, even if the statements are stupid like this was.
Talk to the founding fathers.
I'm so sick of these losers!
Amen on that.
Same here. They didn't even know what is the meaning of palestine. They didn't know who is their first leader or their anthem. They are just shameless..
@@yontziyontz1427why do they need to know all this? The fact that unarmed men, children and women are being killed should be more than enough to join the protests

This should be classified as a hate crime towards us veterans.
I can't agree more! That's a direct hatred against vetarians who gave their lives so these lunatics can have freedom, now being abused! That's also Treason, and they should be jailed! No one should hire these lunatics!
Soooo when can we start legally defending our land from these invaders
As soon as people come together in verry large numbers and say no more .
I’m black and USA is what I’d be chanting ready to defend my home. It ain’t the best but dammit this is home. Till the death I’ll fight.
Same here brother, I'm black and proudly serve in the army. This is my home and will defend it against all enemies foreign and domestic.
I feel like a lot of black people don't realize there is no where else on earth with a black population this size that's doing better than American black people. No place on earth. You can find small immigrant communities in Europe, you can find ultra wealthy 1% communities in Africa, but no where else with a population-scale group of black people doing this well. American Black people are the most powerful black people in the history of the world, short of like literally Mansa Musa.
All AMERICANS bleed red to keep our flag flying.
Another black man here , and IT IS THE BEST better than the rest . All of my ancestors are buried in this soil

USA Flag has Absolute Preference over any other flag in this Country!
Time to defund the university
imagine if this same energy was transformed into protesting the outrageous cost of education.
It’s actually a shame that they even allowed them to switch our flag out in the first place. It’s time to take our country back from these idiots.
They probably did it in the middle of the night perhaps?

Why did they think it was ever ok to replace the USA flag with the Palestine flag.
And to the people who are complaining about us not helping. First off we have already been helping Ukraine out and giving them aid. And secondly the US cannot solve all the world’s problems.
You sure enjoyed flying the
Ukerainian flag
only a few months ago...
Even though Ukerainia is a dictatorship.
Because the media has been praising them for rioting for BLM the last few years. The rioters simply forgot who controls the media and politicians. You can go after the white man for decades, but the second you go after the men in little hats there’s a problem.
