MILWAUKEE -- There were protesters outside the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's Mainstage Theatre, where Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump was set to host a Fox News Channel town hall event scheduled for 3:00 p.m. on campus. Fox News Anchor Greta Van Susteren moderated the event.

A FOX6 News crew estimated there to be about 70 to 100 protesters on hand outside the theatre. Most were a part of the group #WeLove, which was started on Facebook.

An exchange occurred Sunday after a protester was seen stomping on an American flag outside the theatre.

Stomp an ISIS flag in the “caliphate”, then get back to me.

I know it hurts to see, but it doesn’t give them two votes at the ballot.

The best revenge is us winning in November.

It will drive them mad :)

Looks like they had Hillary and Bernie supporters on hand to protest disrupt.

At least they live in a society where this kind of activity is allowed. Wonder if they appreciate their freedom?

Trump says “American greatness”. Leftist neo-communist agitators hate American greatness, so they show their hatred for the country by stomping on the flag.

Liberals have good branding. The “love” label is all left wing views, though that list changes over time.
Our views are love and inherently good, your views are hate and inherently bad.
And then they say we have to ban hate speech, which sounds good, until you realize it means ban all speech we disagree with because we believe everyone who opposes us is only doing so out of hate. That dismisses all logical arguments against their side and smears the dissenters in one swipe.

I think the best way of going after US flag desecration is to bring a flag likely beloved by the desecraters, and desecrate it as well.

For example, the rainbow flag. Communist flags. The Palestinian flag. Others:

I hope these twits can be the first to greet the terrorists who are planning to attack America. ISIS would love these cheeky creeps using sharia.

Agree. I think stomping on a “Che” flag would be most effective.
