While the Republican presidential primary field squared off Tuesday night inside the Milwaukee Theatre, a host of radical protesters came together outside the venue.
From union activists plugging the “Fight for $15” minimum wage increase to members of the Black Lives Matter hate group, the zealots were on hand to push their extreme ideology, and, being a hard-left crowd, you can be sure there was a flag burner among them.

Fortunately, law enforcement quickly responded to rescue the American flag from the ingrate … and to restore honor to the flag torn and burned by the protester, according to Twitchy.com:

God bless the Milwaukee Police Department.
Naturally, the media had little interest in reporting the incident, but the reaction on social media showed that there were plenty who appreciated the actions by police … and to offer some suggestions to the flag-burner.

@MilwaukeePolice This is how you treat our flag, with respect! Wish there was more that could be done to the individual(s) that did this.

@MilwaukeePolice @TheTeditorial I’d contribute to help buy a 1-way ticket to a country that protester would prefer.

@BenHandelman @fox6now the culprit appears to be from the Nation of Islam. They’re a hate group. #Milwaukee #gopdebate

@BenHandelman @fox6now @billmaher So supporters of the Democratic Party are now burning the American Flag? #Disgusting and #pathetic
