The FedEx guy came on the scene equipped with a fire extinguisher, doused the fire and took the flag to a safe forever home away from the dastardly America haters. Another patriot stepped in to defend the Fed Ex guy and told the protesters to “get out of here.”
“That’s not freedom, that’s treason, man,” he said to the protesters. “The clothes on your back were provided by that flag.”
“You’re gonna let the Illuminati run the planet, man?” one protesters astutely argued back.
The identity of the FedEx patriot is unknown, but he will surely join the ranks of great Americans who risked life and limb to defend the honor of this nation’s majestic flag.
