FULL TITLE: FedEx delivery driver lauded as a hero after stopping protesters from lighting American flags on fire

A FedEx delivery man is being praised as a patriot for stopping a group of protesters from lighting American flags on fire.

Matt Uhrin intervened twice during a small protest against racial and social injustices in Iowa City, Iowa, as the group set the stars and stripes alight.

He can be seen on video scuffling with protesters and wrestling the flag from them as he uses a fire extinguisher to put out the flames.

If Obama was still president, he would have been fired. I'm thinking FedEx won't fire him because they don't want to be on the receiving end of President Trump's Twitter. Tired of winning yet?

Fedex ABSOLUTELY would have fired him. These crony corporate cowards will ALWAYS make the wrong choice.

The CEO of FedEx, Fred Smith, was a Marine during Vietnam. He won the Silver Star, Bronze Star and two Purple Hearts.

I *hope* he never even contemplated letting this young man get fired.

If that be the case, then this dude really does deserve a raise/promotion

I’m anxious to hear what the company says about this. THey can’t hardly *not* comment, one way or the other.

If I were the FEDEX guy, I’d have been inclined to administer a lead injection to those defiling the American Flag.
