   More than $124K raised for UNC frat brot

   A group of patriotic frat brothers at the University of North Carolina are   
   being rewarded for protecting the Stars and Stripes from an anti-Israeli   
   mob bent on hoisting the Palestinian colors.   
      
   A GoFundMe page set up for the Pi Kappa Phi students has raised more than   
   $122,000 as of Wednesday afternoon for the students’ heroic stand this   
   week at the UNC-Chapel Hill campus — “to throw this frat the party they   
   deserve,” the fundraising site said.   
      
   “Commie losers across the country have invaded college campuses to make   
   dumb demands of weak university administrators,” the organizers wrote.   
      
   “But amidst the chaos, the screaming, the antisemitism, the hatred of   
   faith and flag, stood a platoon of American heroes.   
      
   “Armored in Vineyard Vines and Patagonia, fueled by Zyn and White Claws,   
   these triumphant Brohemians protected Old Glory from the unwashed Marxist   
   horde, laughing at their shrieks and wails and shielding the Stars &   
   Stripes from Soviet missiles,” the site read.   
      
   The confrontation happened Tuesday when the campus — among dozens in the   
   nation occupied by anti-Israeli demonstrations — was targeted by a pro-   
   Palestinian student mob, Newsweek reported.   
      
   The protesters moved in to raise the Palestinian flag during a   
   confrontation with counter-protesters on campus — when Pi Kappa Phi   
   stepped into the fray.   
      
   A group of frat brothers grabbed the American flag to keep it from   
   touching the ground, all the while being pelted with debris and taunts   
   from the angry mob, according to the outlet.   
      
   Old Glory was later raised after the Palestinian flag was taken down —   
   with students chanting “USA, USA” — and is now protected by a barricade.   
      
   But the frat’s efforts are not forgotten.   
      
   “These boys … no, men, of the UNC-Chapel Hill Pi Kappa Phi gave the best   
   to America and now they deserve the best,” the fundraising site said.   
      
   “Helps us raise funds to throw this frat the party they deserve, a party   
   worth of the boat-shoed Broleteriat who did their country proud.”   
      
   Three dozen anti-Israel protesters were arrested by police on the UNC   
   campus on Tuesday.
