This story began when a group of students at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill campus -- mostly fraternity brothers -- took action after seeing the American flag disrespected while attempts were made to hoist a Palestinian flag in its place. The students then surrounded the U.S. flag and protected it for at least an hour.

Because actions have consequences, the protesters/agitators/anti-American idiots who kept trying to remove the American flag (and were throwing rocks and bottles at those protecting it) will not like the "what happened next" part:

You just hate to see it, right? Heh.

From WUNC:

The UNC-Chapel Hill Board of Trustees has voted to divert $2.3 million away from diversity, equity and inclusion programs and into “public safety.”
The unanimous vote occurred at a special Board of Trustees meeting Monday morning. It is unclear if the diversion of funds would lead to layoffs.

Many members specifically mentioned recent pro-Palestinian demonstrations on campus. Last month, police detained more than 30 people at an encampment where protesters removed the U.S. flag and replaced it with a Palestinian one.
“When you destroy property or you take down the U.S flag and you have to put up gates around it — that costs money,” Kotis said. “It’s imperative that we have the proper resources for law enforcement to protect the campus.”
